Associates Can Lead Diversity Efforts, Too (Perspective)
"With the focus on diversity and inclusion arguably never greater at many of the world’s largest law firms, recent reports show most firms continue to make negligible progress when it comes to increasing diverse attorney headcount and retention. While it might be tempting for firms to attribute the lack of minority representation in BigLaw to a lack of qualified candidates in the recruiting pool, such underrepresentation still fails to account for the high level of minority associate attrition once an attorney joins a firm."
