Lawyering

While working on corporate transactions can be demanding, I often wonder if it’s possible to truly enjoy the process, not just the celebrations after the transactions are completed.

 

I find it becomes more enjoyable when:

โ—ผ๏ธ Everyone involved in the transactions is responsible and committed to doing a good job.

โ—ผ๏ธ We remain curious and eager to learn.

โ—ผ๏ธ We support each other.

What do you enjoy most about the transaction you are working on right now?
