People, Gender Action Plan, London
As part of our objective to support talented female lawyers, we have developed a Gender Action Plan (GAP). One of the GAP initiatives has been “Food for thought”, a series of training sessions specifically designed to appeal to female lawyers. The topics included psychology of meetings; effective team working; and powerful communication. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. The materials from the “Food for thought” sessions are now being reworked into a new milestone learning programme called “Crafting your Career” which will be offered to all junior lawyers.
