This webinar explores how legal teams can collaborate more effectively by understanding the values, motivators and perspectives that shape people’s behaviour at work. Blending empathy with high performance, this session equips participants with practical tools to give and receive feedback; influence with integrity; and foster a more connected, resilient and collaborative culture.
Rather than relying on labels or assumptions in the workplace, the focus of this session is on practical emotional intelligence skills that prioritise psychological safety and help teams build trust; communicate with authenticity; and navigate differences with confidence.
Attendees will learn how to:
- Step into another person’s shoes to see their perspective.
- Shift conversations from judgement to curiosity.
- Strengthen relationships across diverse working styles.
- Challenge unhelpful workplace myths, including assumptions about people’s commitment or work-life balance, and replace them with more constructive interpretations.
This session is run as part of the 2026 webinar programme – download the programme to register for other webinars like this.
