Firm trains young lawyers on entrepreneurial skills

To equip young lawyers with vital information and resources that can acquaint them with entrepreneurial skills, a Lagos- based firm, GreySage Consulting, is set to commence embark on training of young lawyers.

The project termed, ‘Do-It-Yourself approach to career development’, the firm said, is aimed at creating a prosperous and fulfilling work life.
  
The young lawyers would be trained in a month-long consultation session in April 2018 and it would be available to only 20 young lawyers in Lagos.

GreySage Consulting said it has teamed up with experienced dynamic attorney, Akinyemi Ayinoluwa, who is a founding partner at HighTower Solicitors & Advocates for the training.
  
It stated that, “among some of the issues young Nigerian lawyers grapple with are low Remuneration, unbearable work environments, unemployment, lack of opportunities for growth and promotion, as well as lack of healthy Work/Life balance.
  
“While this crippling status quo remains, the market welcomes not less than 3,000 new wigs every year. Only a lucky few will land a spot with the limited number of thriving workplaces scattered across Nigeria.
  
The firm therefore stated that willing participants would have a One-on-One basis and get an opportunity to share from a resourceful wealth of experience as a successful lawyer-preneur.
