Do you ever wonder what it takes to be a successful lawyer? After 40 years in the legal industry, Jon Greenblatt, has a few suggestions for junior attorneys. Jon spoke with Adriana Linares on New Solo, to share four good habits for developing a successful career.
Four Good Habits For A Successful Career:
- Follow leads. Your ultimate career is not a straight path, go where the opportunities take you and be openminded.
- Network. Build your network, including people from all seniority levels. People genuinely want to help people they know.
- Develop mentors. Most people are honored to be mentoring but the mentee also needs to be proactive.
- Make yourself indispensable. Create a high quality work product, regardless of the project.
“Almost none of us are doing what we predicted we would be doing coming out of law school.”
— Jon Greenblatt
