Speed Mentoring & Networking

THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT. WALK-INS ARE NOT PERMITTED. 

Are you earlier in your law career and looking for an opportunity to network with other lawyers? Would you like an easy way to meet a potential mentor to help guide you? Do you have questions that a lawyer at a different career level could answer?

Join us in-person for our unique Speed Mentoring event!

Speed mentoring is a series of short, focused conversations about legal profession-related questions. As a mentee (and someone in the early stages of their legal career), you will meet with several mentors in 12‐minute time slots in which you will have an opportunity to tap into the wealth of experience and knowledge of diverse Toronto lawyers to help mentor you and your career development. 

During the mentoring sessions, you will meet with experienced members of the bar in a variety of practice areas. The focus will be on profession-related issues that apply across practice areas, not on substantive questions or career development in a particular area.

Bring your questions on these topics or others. (No substantive law questions, please.)

  • Strategy
  • Ethical/Moral Issues
  • Career Progress
  • Marketing
  • Networking
  • How to handle difficult clients or opposing counsel
  • Negotiating/influencing others
  • Time management
  • Work/Life Balance

After the mentoring sessions, there will be a networking mix and mingle with refreshments. 

Spaces are limited, register today!
