As we move towards what we believe to be a post-pandemic era, the practice of law is very different today than many of us imagined it could be. Before the pandemic, women typically faced greater barriers to partnership and leadership than their male colleagues. Today, as offices reopen, we have a unique opportunity to refocus and reimagine the structures and culture of legal organizations. We are facing such core questions as, how will employer policies affect women, especially women with children, women of color and women from various cultures? Why are so many women lawyers experiencing burnout and what strategies can leaders implement to minimize the impact? What can women do individually and together to enhance retention and advance? Our speakers will present comprehensive research on these issues and will share their insights and experiences.
