[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You must not know many trial attorneys because we are performers by nature. We have to be if we want to hold the attention of a jury. [/quote] Agreed. Unfortunately I think nearly all of the CLEs I've attended over the years are just as the OP described. Pure torture. I work in a niche practice area where I offer continuing ed to non-attorneys and I cannot tell you the number of times over the years where attendees have specifically commented in their feedback of how wonderful it was to attend a continuing ed course that included personality because apparently I'm funny when I present. I don't think I'm funny in real life, but to this commenter's point, it's a performance. Either you perform to hold the audience's attention when conveying difficult topics and get to keep your job or you should find something else to do. [/quote]
