Week 7 of the Ask A Senior series with Albert
Here are some excerpts from this week’s series
To network effectively,
you must be intentional.
Identify who you want to
speak with at an event,
and do some background
research to find common
ground, whether it’s a shared
alma mater, an interest in a
legal topic, or even a football
team.
I wish someone had told me
to build stronger social and
professional networks. In
this profession, relationships
matter, and many clients and
opportunities come through
those personal and professional
connections.
For many foreign bar
qualifications, being called to
the bar in your home country is
a prerequisite, so the first step is
to pass the Ghana Bar.
