September, Time to Go Back to School and Get Some CLE!
September is off and running! Can you feel the fall weather coming? After 100+ degree summer days, I've landed in San Francisco for a breath of fresh air.
The New Law Firm
Whether you're looking for a job or practicing as a solo or in a big firm, you know that you have to keep up with innovations in law. How do you market yourself? What niche is a fit for you? What are the latest trends and opportunities in law? HOW DO YOU GET A JOB?!
CLE will explore The New Law Firm (September 17, San Francisco)
When is the last time you left a Continuing Legal Education program feeling inspired, energized, and connected?
Growth and Renewal at CuttingEdgeLaw.com
You may have noticed that Cutting Edge Law has been under construction lately. As with most remodeling, there have been some unexpected glitches and rough spots. But, in general, I have been ECSTATIC. You see, I haven't had to pick up a single hammer or nail. All the work is being done by Gretchen Duhaime of Practicing on Purpose, our new partner.
Better link to the Intensive for Lawyers as Agents of Evolutionary Change
Thanks for helping us test our new mailing system. We've learned a lot about what didn't work! (Apologies and groans plus gratitude to Gretchen Duhaime!)
From several emails, I've learned that apparently some email servers truncated the link to the Lawyers as Agents of Evolutionary Change registration page. Try this shorter link:
Lawyers as Agents of Evolutionary Change: An Intensive Inquiry and Dialog
Many of us went to law school to change the world, to create world peace, to make a difference. We may not always have careers that do that and we may not share our passions in public - after all, we don't want to appear undignified, idealistic or grandiose. In private conversations, hundreds of lawyers have shared their secret hopes and dreams with me and I have seen many of them fulfill on those early dreams. I've seen the real bigness of lawyers, the power to be evolutionaries and world changers.
Lawyers as Agents of Evolutionary Change: Reclaiming evolutionary paradigms in the life and practice of lawyers, their clients and society.

Announcements from the Road
We've been quieter than usual in these last few weeks. We've done some amazing work on our new Open Heart Dialog and Systemic Change projects, presenting them in some cool places. We've been streamlining the back end of the site and deleting old, irrelevant content and preparing for some big changes that are in the works.
