I am an Adjunct Professor at Fordham Law School. My course, "Positive Lawyering" focuses on how developments in positive psychology (the science of what makes people and institutions flourish) and executive coaching can be leveraged to produce peak performance lawyering. This course explores the research surrounding lawyer well-being and performance, and how certain cognitive and behavioral patterns that are pervasive in the legal profession prevent many lawyers from being as happy, healthy, or successful as they could be. It also focus on equipping students with a toolkit of science-backed skills and strategies they can use to counteract these maladaptive thought and behavioral patterns in order to achieve greater satisfaction in their personal and professional lives. Topics include resilience, character strengths, social and emotional intelligence, the power of positive emotions, high-quality connections, creativity, mindfulness, and self-awareness.
