Removing toxicity from a lawyer’s life

Warning: This show has been marked as explicit In 2021, Dr Hannah Korrel advocated the need to break up with bad bosses. Here, she returns to the show to discuss individual responsibility in having a “low tox life” in a workforce that is more hybrid and flexible in nature. On this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy welcomes back author and neuropsychologist Dr Hannah Korrel to discuss the myriad toxic issues facing working legal professionals in the age of coronavirus, how difficult it can and might be for lawyers to undo that toxicity, and the need for team leaders new and creative ways to create more inclusive, collegiate workforces. Dr Korrel also delves into the toxicity that will remain problematic for lawyers in 2022, practical steps that lawyers must take to remove or at least reduce toxicity in their day-to-day working lives – both personally and professionally – how cognisant lawyers and their employers are of the deleterious nature of said toxicity and the need to address it, and more broadly, why such change will result in a healthier, happier and more productive year ahead.
