Description

Firms are embracing formal initiatives and confirming the substantial benefits that offer to help enhance their firm's ability to attract, retain and advance women. But there is still progress to be made. What should women examine when entering a partnership? Is there unconscious bias in partnership offers? And if so, how do we combat this with your firm's diversity and inclusion efforts?

Learning Objectives:

• Evaluate partnership offerings to determine how gender bias may show up
• Formulate a plan to expand your firm’s diversity and inclusion efforts to include women leaders
