PODCAST EPISODE: Struggling to Cope: Why Are 90% of Lawyers Thin-Skinned?

 

Narrative Overview

Why is the psychological makeup of lawyers visibly distinct from that of any corporate executive? This episode features psychologist and former practicing attorney Dr. Larry Richard dissecting the peculiar inner workings behind the personality makeup and behavioral tendencies of lawyers. Dr. Richard is an internationally recognized expert who works with some of the biggest law firms and corporate counsel, and here he speaks based on his extensive research on lawyers’ performance, leadership, and well-being. The discussion includes the seven personality characteristics of lawyers; the neurobiology of change management; and the scientific methods of creating sustainable resilience and performance in high-pressure scenarios.
