3 hours CPD

With the new SRA approach to CPD - the responsibility of Solicitors to identify and record their own training needs rather than following a defined amount of hours - we are planning a series of management training courses for members. 

This seminar would be beneficial to all fee earners and support staff and will cover:

• What makes people tick
• Handling hostile or aggressive clients
• Useful influencing techniques
• Difficult people: what they do and why

This lecture will be presented by  CHRIS CROFT  Chris has an Engineering Degree from Cambridge and an MBA, worked as a senior manager in manufacturing for 10 years and then as a university lecturer for five years before starting his own training company in 1995.
