SUMMARY:PDI LUNCH TIME WEBINAR - 1 ETHICS CREDIT - “I Don’t Belong – Imposter Theory in the Legal Profession”
DESCRIPTION:Brian S. Quinn\, Esquire\, Education and Outreach Coordinator\, Lawyers Concerned for Lawyers of PA\, Inc.\, will present a very interesting and new topic “I Don’t Belong – Imposter Theory in the Legal Profession”  This will provide 1 Ethics Credit for the then ending Compliance Period.  The Imposter Theory involves feelings of self-doubt and personal incompetence that persist despite your education\, experience\, and accomplishments.  It has been discovered that although lawyers are reluctant to admit it\, this is an issue that affects the legal profession.  The consequences of this theory can result in an effort to cope with and then conceal the feelings with alcohol and drugs.  A very important topic that must be discussed. \nDownload PDF Registration
