Reflection paper 470
The paper instructions
The final reflection paper will be a comprehensive 10 page reflection on the course and its implications for you as a person and as a lawyer, legal education, and the legal profession.
the course name is emotional intelligent in law
Course Overview: As in medicine, business, and the other professions, success in law requires much more than the ability to understand, apply, and articulate the law. It also requires the ability to perform in difficult, often high-pressure environments; to work effectively with others, including clients, colleagues, and staff; and to lead in situations of conflict and uncertainty. These tasks require a separate set of skills that have long been highly prized in the legal profession, but not formally taught in law schools or cultivated in practice. The thinking was that either you have these skills or you don’t.
