Well done

One of the purposes of the NALP #annualeducationconference is to reconnect with others in the industry, especially for those of us in it for a long time. Last week, it was great to catch up with people who I have grown up with in the profession, who have been instrumental in my own career development, (looking at you, Debby, Michele, Emily, Victor, Yujin, Kathren, Carryn). And, then to be sitting next to Carryn at the Flo Recruit dinner! Carryn and I are part of each other’s law firm “origin stories” and it was fun to relive and share how we were trained in that bygone era, from use of significant digits in GPA calculations, the order the doucments appeared in the callback file, printing callback documents on the appropriate colored paper, the correct *full* names of law schools on the appropriately colored file labels, callback reports, FedEx’ing candidate files to Chicago prior to the 5:00 p.m. cutoff, arraning seating charts for recruiting dinners, etc. And, to top the week off, I get to see my oversized headshot at the business meeting, when I was recognized with Clara Solomon and Donna Gerson by our peers at NALP, for doing “work,” that I don’t really consider work. It is so fulfilling when I can connect people and, more importantly, advance other careers. And, to feel and hear the appreciation from the #aapi members, well, it makes it all worthwhile.  #nalp #nalpannual #legalrecruiting

We are thrilled to announce that Vincent AI has been honored with the prestigious New Product Award from the American Association of Law Libraries (AALL)! This recognition highlights our commitment to innovation and excellence in the legal sector. Can't really express in words how proud I am to be part of this team! #LegalAI #LegalTech

This will be a great webinar! I have great respect for Larraine Segil and John Driver, NACD.DC. It is critical that #boarddirectors have different backgrounds and share different points of view respectfully. These differences improve the organization's strategy and risk oversight. #corporategovernance #DirectorExcellence

Behind the scenes: This was our expert panel that judged our 2024 award entries. I’d like to thank our judges for giving up time to support the judging process for our 2024 awards: Graham Hughes Elliot Kay Emma Henderson MBE MRAeS At Circle Networks, fairness and consistency are key to recognising outstanding achievements. This year, every judge was given 200 points per award category to distribute across the entries. Here’s how we guided our judges through the process to ensure the best results: 1. Allocate Points Thoughtfully: Each judge had exactly 200 points to allocate within each category, focusing on one category at a time. This approach helped keep the process simple and focused. 2. Pick their Favourite: Judges were encouraged to assign a significant portion of their points to their favourite entry in each category—the one they felt truly stood out. This allowed for clear recognition of the best contenders. 3. Distribute the Rest: After selecting their standout choice, judges could spread their remaining points among the other entries. 4. The winners were then selected from the highest point totals in each category. Through this method, we ensured each entry received the careful consideration it deserved. The only exception was our Member of the year award that was chosen by me from all of the weekly winners of our member of the week recognition during the last year. #CircleNetworksLive #FriendshipFuelsBusiness
