Lawyering with Emotional Intelligence: A Conversation with Ronda Muir

Date and time: Tuesday, October 12th, 2021, 6:30-7:30M

Join Parents and Caregivers at Chicago-Kent (PACCK), First-Generation Law Student Association (First-Gen), and the Labor and Employment Law Society (LELS) for an evening with Ronda Muir, author of Beyond Smart: Lawyering with Emotional Intelligence and Founder and Principal of Law People Management, LLC. Statistics show that individuals with higher emotional intelligence are happier at work and in their personal lives, experience better success in collaborative settings, and have higher self-regulation, empathy, self-awareness, motivation, and social skills. Ms. Muir will share where lawyers typically stand in these areas and provide ways to assess, develop, and market your emotional intelligence in your lives and careers. Ms. Muir is an attorney with both Big Law and inside counsel experience in the U.S. and overseas, and  is one of the country’s leading authorities on the personal attributes of lawyers and the application of behavioral science to the legal workplace. She counsels firms, academics, and global organizations on ways to maximize individual and organizational law practice performance.
