If you've understood the "why" behind diversifying your attorneys and staff but struggled with the "how" to accomplish your goal -- you're not alone. Hear from Dr. Sharon Meit Abrahams and a panel of legal professionals whose changes have improved their ability to attract and retain diverse attorneys and staff. Research indicates that one of the most effective and cost-effective ways to improve your bottom line is to prioritize diversity on the team. Studies not only show that employers with greater gender diversity outperform comparable settings, but that employers with ethnic and cultural diversity show even greater profitability. While the research is clear, the legal profession is struggling, and once added, retaining diverse talent is challenging. With the composition of our population dramatically changing, there's never been a better time to re-evaluate and adjust your plan.
