As the legal industry becomes increasingly competitive, lawyers must go beyond academic qualifications and traditional practice models to remain relevant and attractive in today’s evolving professional landscape. Recognising this growing need, the Legal Business Network is set to host a practical and insightful webinar titled “Strategic Career Positioning for Lawyers: CV Writing, Personal Branding and Employability Skills for Career Growth.”
The webinar, scheduled to hold on Wednesday, 20 May 2026 by 3:00 PM via Zoom, is designed to equip young and mid-level lawyers with practical tools for career advancement, visibility, and professional growth.
The session will feature focused presentations on key areas critical to career success. Participants will gain valuable insights into crafting compelling legal CVs, building authentic and strategic personal brands, and developing employability skills relevant to the modern legal workplace.
The webinar is hosted by Ifeoma Ben, a corporate commercial lawyer, Founding Partner at The Law Suite, and Founder of the Legal Business Network. She heads the Telecommunications, Media and Technology Practice of the firm and has extensive experience advising startups, technology companies, entrepreneurs, and professionals on business development, legal compliance, innovation, and strategic growth.
Ifeoma holds a Master of Laws degree from the University of Lagos and an MBA in Artificial Intelligence from Nexford University, Washington D.C., graduating with distinction. She has also served in several leadership positions within the legal profession and is recognised for her contributions to legal innovation, professional development, and entrepreneurship.
Speaking on the webinar, she noted that many lawyers possess impressive qualifications but struggle with positioning themselves effectively for opportunities because they underestimate the importance of visibility, branding, communication, and strategic career development.
According to her, the webinar is aimed at helping lawyers become more intentional about how they present themselves and compete in the modern legal market.
Lawyers, law students, and professionals seeking career growth are encouraged to participate in the session.
