Resilient GC Series: Birmingham roundtables

We are excited to present our 2025 programme of roundtables for General and In-House Counsel.  

We will be working alongside founder of GuruYou Coaching; Rebecca Mander on a new series designed to help In House Counsel to build resilience, develop new perspectives and foster better self-awareness to improve performance in their organisation.

Victim and Victor - How to control the controllables 

Choosing a victor over victim mindset can turn adversity into empowerment. Rebecca will be sharing how the tragic loss of her son and mother, during a time of economic hardship for the organisation she was leading, motivated her to become the founder of a coaching business!

As well as sharing her inspiring journey from victim to victor, Rebecca will take us through the powerful coaching tool, Charlie’s Star to empower you to be the victor, find strength in our challenges and make the best choices no matter what life throws at you.

* Please note this session briefly discusses the topic of infant loss.

Imposter phenomenon and negative thinking – How self-empowerment & positive outlook can control the voice within

Much talked about, but unfortunately still a bit part of a lot of our lives, Rebecca will look at how our careers can be overshadowed by negative automatic thoughts and imposter phenomenon. During this interactive session, we will learn just exactly what it is (not a syndrome!) and where we get it from.  We will receive tools and techniques to balance our thoughts to prevent negativity from getting in the way of success.

Mindfulness and the power of saying “No” – How to foster resilience and self-care

All we know for sure is what is happening NOW! Mindfulness has been an incredible tool for helping us reduce anxiety since the late 1970s and in this session, Rebecca shares her tips with quick techniques for the fast-paced world we live in.

Wouldn’t we all feel a lot better if we could say “No” more often? Rebecca talks about the Power of No so we can focus on the things that we should be prioritising…a healthy reminder with tricks for any people pleasers amongst us!
