14 Copyright ©2014 What We Know About Women Lawyers and Grit Women lawyers are pretty gritty! Grit is related to a number of measures of success in BigLaw and most significantly to billable hours and quality of work. Grit seems to be a precursor to BigLaw success rather than an outcome of BigLaw success. Grit is largely monotonic (meaning that people tend to get grittier over time).

15 Copyright ©2014 What We Know About Women Lawyers and Mindset Many highly successful female lawyers display growth mindset characteristics when dealing with challenging situations. But there is significant room for improvement for women lawyers generally.

16 Copyright ©2014 Practical Application Working Through Real-World Scenarios

17 Copyright ©2014 How Can We Improve These Traits? Learn how to handle and learn from failure. Learn how to receive criticism. Learn how to give criticism (praise efforts, not outcomes). Be realistically optimistic. Identify your passions. Provide meaning and context for assignments.
