Domains:  Business of Law, Client Services

You may be working hard to address both the D&I needs of your clients and D&I efforts within your firm. But no single department within a law firm can tackle all of these requests alone. In this session, you’ll hear how leaders from LMA, ALA, ILTA and NALP are responding to client needs and requests while supporting D&I from their unique perspective. You’ll learn best practices for teaming across administrative functions, honestly discuss what gets in the way of good collaboration and gain ideas you can take back to your firm and share with your colleagues in all departments.

You’ll learn how to:

• Evaluate feedback from the client’s perspective about diversity—what they want and what they expect from their outside counsel
• Understand how the marketing/business development, firm administration, technology and recruiting functions are supporting diversity and inclusion
• Tackle barriers to collaboration across administrative teams
• Add to your D&I toolkit and share with your colleagues tips from all four perspectives
