Just when we all thought the Conservative Lord chancellors of the last 14 years couldnโt be beaten for peak ideological stupidity we are all surprised by just how unsurprising some things never fail to be.

ADVENT CALENDAR -DAY 10
YOUR LAY CLIENT IS THE REASON FOR THE JOURNEY, NOT SOME HITCHHIKER THAT YOU HAVE DEIGNED TO GIVE A LIFT. Keep your client front and centre in all you do. Donโt just hear them, LISTEN. Talk TO them, not AT them. Give them time & courtesy. Be patient.

ADVENT CALENDAR - DAY 9
ADD VALUE - Why are you asking that question, adding that word or sentence or making that point. What value does it ADD to what you have already done? If you canโt answer that question DONโT ask it/say it. You risk ruining something thatโs good enough

MY ADVOCACY ADVENT CALENDAR
Day 1 - Eye contact: Advocacy is not an exercise in projecting your voice whilst keeping your eyes firmly buried in your computer or notes.
You should control your notes, not the other way round.
Watching your judge, witness, listener is essential

I believe that the time has come to require complete transparency in political party funding, including the real identity of funders.
There should be NO overseas funding permitted from any source and there should be a maximum funding amount
Breach of these rules should be a criminal offence

ADVENT CALENDAR- Day 2
ACTIVE LISTENING - donโt just hear what people are saying. Listen to the words they use (or donโt use), how they say what they are saying and what they avoid saying. Donโt be so wound up in what YOU want to say next that you miss what they are saying NOW
02.12.2024 10:58 โ ๐ 14 ๐ 4 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0
ADVENT CALENDAR DAY 3
SILENCE- can be the most powerful tool in the advocacy arsenal. If you get a devastating answer, let it sink in before the next question. If the witness is struggling to make up an answer, pause & let the sound of their brain working overtime fill the room

ADVENT CALENDAR DAY 4
CASE THEORY - essential for assessing relevance, target-setting and knowing where to fight & where to yield. It is also a vital tool to assist in client care - helping them to understand strategic decisions they need to make or endorse.
