SYNOPSIS
This webinar is a part of the CBABC Equity, Diversity & Inclusion Series.
Whether it’s where you're from, what you look like, what your gender is or what you believe, we all have different parts that make us who we are. How these come together can shape our interactions as lawyers. Attend this session to uncover the impact your experience has on the people around you and how this understanding of yourself and others can help you build more effective client relationships.
