Our special panel will discuss whether it’s personality or skill-set a young lawyer needs to make the step – or a combination of both? We’ll also discuss the future of partnership after a recent survey revealed that three quarters (78%) of respondents said that they thought the traditional model of partnership in a law firm is outdated, and discuss why – sometimes – good lawyers can become poor leaders.
We’ll also ask whether partnership requires a business case and not just personality and skill set. If so, what is that and how do up-and-coming lawyers present theirs?
And, as many lawyers decide partnership is not for them, our panel will take a look at other options available, such as working in-house or at a virtual law firm which perhaps offers a more attractive work/life balance.
The event will give the best possible advice to those looking to step up in their career, as a new generation of lawyers looks set to change their careers are shaped. Whatever stage of your career – this will be an event not to miss.
