Get to know Jennifer Overhaus and you will instantly discover her passion for life, ambition, and goal-centered achievement. It was this mindset that fueled her legal career, and helped her accomplish exactly what she set out to do as a lawyer: distinguish herself as leading IT lawyer and head an international practice group in a top 50 global law firm.
For Jennifer, becoming a known expert in her field was the easy part! Growing from a legal expert towards building up her client base, bringing in new business and developing her leadership skills proved much less straightforward, and taught her a good deal.
This is probably why Jennifer gradually became interested in helping the younger generation succeed with greater ease and self-awareness. As she focused on mentoring the young lawyers around her, she became increasingly conscious that they were often not encouraged to cultivate the skills most likely to bring them long-term success. (And looking back on her own journey, she realized that she too could have been better educated, as opposed to enduring the all-too-familiar lawyer scenario: sink or swim.)
Eventually, Jennifer's passion for mentoring best-possible development to junior lawyers transitioned into writing a book that would deliver her message to a much wider audience—which is how Juggling the Big 3 was born.
Jennifer is now a much sought after consultant, speaker, and trainer. Through her unique and energetic approach, she motivates and empowers the next generation of lawyers to be visionary business generators and leaders.
