Adam Grant’s new book “Hidden Potential” references a study showing that lawyers who were guided by multiple mentors are more likely to make partner. Takeaway? Associates, get to know partners across practice groups - as people, as leaders, as colleagues. Your rise to partnership will become a natural byproduct of your relationships at the firm, your exposure to clients, and from the dynamic experiences garnered from networking. Show up. Stay committed. The best firms will recognize your authentic contributions; they place less weight on personal production and more on your investments in the firm, evidence that you have and are willing to share in the risks as much as the wins. And practically speaking, it if comes down to a vote - you need to campaign long before your name is on the ballot. #thelawt #legalrecruiting #thepathtopartnership
