Raising the Bar 2024

Description:

Produced by the TBA Women in the Profession Committee, the third annual “Raising the Bar” program is applicable to all attorneys, as well as those in law firm management positions. The event will be held at Baker Donelson's Nashville offices on Dec. 4. We will hear from a stacked roster of attorneys from across the state, and there will be opportunities to network including a networking breakfast from 9:15-10am CT and a networking reception following the program from 4:30-6pm CT. 

This CLE addresses ways to successfully tackle transitions in your personal and professional life. The program begins with keynote speaker Megan Barry, who will discuss her new book It's What You Do Next: The Fall and Rise of Nashville's First Female Mayor. The second and third sessions will focus on personal and professional transitions for attorneys, featuring panelists such as Chancellor Anne Martin, former Judge Bernice Donald and Chancellor Ellen Lyle, Casey Duhart, Paul Ney, and Kisha Cheeks Rucker. The program continues with a session that covers career development, specifically ways to advocate for your professional advancement. We will end the day with a one-hour dual credit attorney well being session.
