[QUOTE="Jaysen, post: 141082, member: 1"] When trying to understand the commercial world, one of the things I find most helpful is to write about it and send it to someone else. Writing about it is a very good exercise to see if you actually understand it and sending it to someone else forces you to learn how to explain it clearly. I recommend writing about commercial topics you are trying to understand in your own words. If you realise you don't understand something, this can be a very helpful exercise to find out what you don't know (and then research that thing). Some of you may have seen that I have been doing this on LinkedIn recently; [LIST] [*][URL='https://www.linkedin.com/posts/jaysen-sutton_when-i-began-my-training-contract-i-didn-activity-7040979727909560320-Pu8w?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop']Understanding law firms as a business[/URL] [*][URL='https://www.linkedin.com/posts/jaysen-sutton_what-i-wish-i-knew-about-what-ma-lawyers-activity-7046143591718469632-K_kQ?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop']What I wish I knew about M&A[/URL] [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
