In today’s competitive legal landscape, merely doing “good work” isn’t enough. Success hinges on cultivating relationships and maximizing every precious non-billable moment. Gladstone’s MAKERain program is designed to support your firm’s tangible business development goals while simplifying demands on your attorneys.

How we are different:

Focus on habits rather than steps: No more spinning wheels on non-essential tasks. We empower your lawyers to forge impactful “keystone habits” that catalyze a chain reaction of business development success.

Empower natural strengths: We identify and leverage each participant’s innate strengths and preferences, aligning them with universal business development principles. This approach cultivates a sustainable flow that not only reinforces your brand but also drives repeat and referral business.

Simplicity: Rather than overwhelming participants with exhaustive training sessions that detract from billable time, we streamline our approach. Our sessions focus on highly relevant, actionable principles complemented by practical exercises, empowering lawyers to swiftly implement these principles into practice.

Global Reach: Our extensive network of coaches and affiliates enables us to seamlessly scale up to accommodate hundreds of coaching clients simultaneously, all while maintaining exceptional quality. Our highly skilled coaches, who are seasoned business developers with backgrounds in the legal profession, are equipped to support clients across any time zone worldwide.

Here’s how we do it:

Customized Engagement: Our tailored training and practical workshop exercises captivate your audience, fostering sustainable habits that yield tangible results.

Personalized Coaching: Through individual one-on-one coaching, we leverage each lawyer’s unique strengths to cultivate habits that not only drive success but also save precious time.

Strategic Assessment: Our business development acumen assessments and psychometrics provide invaluable insights, identifying strengths and areas for growth. Armed with this knowledge, informed decisions about learning and professional development become effortless.

We cater to all levels of your firm:

  • Rainmakers hungry for greater heights.
  • Partners & Shareholders seeking to fortify their positions.
  • Laterals transitioning seamlessly.
  • Income Partners ready to accelerate.
  • Associates eager to carve their paths.
