Just ASK: Ideajam for Your Benefit

Wednesday, March 26th will be a fantastic evening of Asking and Receiving at our New York event. Tap into our incredibly dynamic group of problem solvers and idea generators to brainstorm about an issue you are struggling with. Come prepared with your Ask, an open mind and your amazing collaboration skills. This will be a highly interactive session focused on how we can all take action to propel each other forward.

All ideas are welcome so we are asking you to please bring a friend to lend her voice to this electric night of exchange.

Igniting our conversation and keeping us on track will be our honored guest, Gillian Drake, Founder and Director, On Trial Associates, Inc. and Acting for Lawyers™

Gillian Drake

Gillian is the founder and director of On Trial Associates, Inc., and Acting for Lawyers™. She was an accomplished theater director who, for over 20 years, has worked with lawyers and witnesses to elicit persuasive performances from even the most unwilling speakers. Gillian uses basic theater techniques to teach presentation and interpersonal communication skills – the same techniques actors traditionally use to perfect speeches, improve storytelling skills, gain self-confidence, learn to concentrate before groups, and develop a “performance image.” With witnesses, the transference of performance skills is even more direct, i.e., stage fright, anxiety, presence, and authenticity are basic areas to master on stage or witness stand. On Trial’s clients include major corporations and law firms, non-profit organizations, government agencies, federal and state prosecutors, public defenders/defense attorneys, and legal trade and bar associations.
