The Fundamentals of Success

Whether you are a new associate, rising partner, or already in the leadership ranks of your law firm, this course provides clear insights into the pursuit of a happy and successful life and career.  Success is derived from a mixture of attitudes, behaviors and habits, and this program is designed to capture the essence of success, provide the tools of success that are within your reach and take away the mystery of why some people are successful and others are not. 

Alan Becker, a former Florida state legislator, community leader, and founding shareholder of a national Florida-based law firm provides real world guidance derived from the advice and insights of those who have scaled the pinnacles of success in life and the law.  The “secrets” of success taught in this course are derived from his personal experience in politics, in business and in life; as well as lessons drawn from many of the most successful people in their various fields whom Alan personally interviewed for his 2006 book, “There’s Always Room at the Top.”
