Shawn McNalis literally "wrote the book" on the original legal marketing system for Atticus. Along with Mark Powers, she developed and wrote both "The Rainmaker Program," the marketing manual used by Atticus clients, as well as the abridged version commissioned and published by The Florida Bar in 1995, entitled "The Making of a Rainmaker." In addition, Shawn has authored a new book on time management for attorneys. Shawn focuses her coaching on a select group of attorneys in the Atticus Collegium and Forum programs, and provides training and certification to the company's team of coaches.
A former "Imagineer" for the Walt Disney Company, Shawn credits her Disney background for her creative, client-centered approach to business and marketing. During her 15-year career with Disney, she played an important role in the opening of the Disney-MGM Studios and numerous theme park attractions throughout the Disney Resort. In 1983 she relocated to Tokyo for nearly a year, supervising and conducting training for contract employees of Tokyo Disneyland.
Shawn is a Rollins College alumna and had the honor of being selected as campus candidate for the Fulbright Scholarship Award two consecutive years.
