Over the past several weeks, we’ve introduced you to firms who are committed to staying connected with their clients and each other during the #covid19 crisis (and using ContactEase to do it). In this post, we’re turning our attention to the inaugural National Lawyer Well-Being Week. The aim of Well-Being Week is to raise awareness and encourage action across the legal profession to improve well-being for lawyers and their support teams.
Each day of Lawyer Well-Being Week focuses on a dimension of holistic well-being:
- Monday: Stay Strong (physical well-being)
- Tuesday: Align (spiritual well-being)
- Wednesday: Engage & Grow (intellectual and occupational well-being)
- Thursday: Connect (social well-being)
- Friday: Feel Well (emotional well-being)
And while each of these areas is equally important, it’s Thursday’s theme of connection and social well-being that really resonates with us at ContactEase. While some may view CRM as just a software platform, it’s about connection — growing relationships and staying in touch. We look forward to sharing our favorite tips for developing and maintaining your professional relationships in the coming weeks. In the meantime, consider taking a look at some of these recommended resources from the Lawyer Well-Being website:
