The Law To Know

Module 4

Workload, control and boundaries: saying no, asking for help and managing up

Much of the strain in legal work comes from workload and from a feeling that you cannot say no. Control over workload is one of the most effective protections against burnout, and it can be built. This module covers how to estimate honestly, say no without a fight, ask for help early and set sensible boundaries.
