📣 People, environment and purpose – is it time to recast our legal ecosystem along these values? We are delighted to announce the release of our latest report “World in Motion – why the legal profession cannot stand still” which explores in-depth culture in the law taking into account the voices – and expectations – of tomorrow’s legal leaders. The next generation is clear: the legal profession must move with the times and evolve to match a changing world. 👉 86% of junior lawyers surveyed for the report say they are looking to effect positive change in society through their work as a lawyer 👉 74% agree or strongly agree that they would not join an organisation whose values did not match with their own, even if they were offering more money 👉 Yet only 58% are actually working at an organisation whose values match their own Our report, the 4th in a series exploring culture in the legal profession, posits four key pillars that will help drive the change the profession needs to see: purpose and profit; environment; access to the profession; and ethics. With special thanks to many contributors to our report including Matthew Hill, CEO, Legal Services Board and Lubna Shuja, Immediate Past President 2022-23, The Law Society of England and Wales and future legal leaders who joined our fascinating roundtable Oliver Bridal, Legal Counsel at Citeline (Norstella), Olivia Brooks, Associate at Bates Wells, Alfie Cranmer, Regulatory Associate Solicitor at Kingsley Napley LLP, Priya Dasani, Associate at Stephenson Harwood LLP, Grace Kendrick, Solicitor at CMS, Holly Moore, In-house Advisor – Brand Protection at ITV, Lara O., Legal Officer and Case Presenter at The General Pharmaceutical Council, Abigail Pidgen, In-house Solicitor at Arup, Hollie Rhodes, former Contracts Manager at Obelisk and Anna Vroobel, Associate Solicitor at Irwin Mitchell.
