RSHC Partner Geoff Young co-moderated a program at the June 7 MBK | MSK Fellowship Summit in NYC entitled “Managing in Changing Time: Law Firm Management Roundtable.” During the program, Geoff and the panelists discussed their path ascending to law firm management roles, how those roles have changed due to the pandemic, and how DEI leadership has changed after SCOTUS struck down affirmative action at colleges. #ProudtobeRSHC MBKMSK LLC

Back at my old stomping ground, UNSW Law & Justice today, sharing insights on leadership within the legal profession for an upcoming Centre for the Future of the Legal Profession course. Today marked my last day as a partner at Clayton Utz after a 21-year journey at the firm. Reflecting on this topic seemed apposite as I embark on the next phase in my career.

After having been a 2021 Leadership Council on Legal Diversity (LCLD) Fellow, I am excited to have completed the year-long LCLD Alumni Sustainable Partnership Program (SPP) for the first Midwest Cohort. This program was designed to support new diverse law partners or senior associates - who often are unknowing or unequipped - in sustaining our practices by developing and/or growing legal business in order to tackle this next level of our career progression. If you’re not in private legal practice, you may not know or appreciate that one of the main jobs of a law partner is to build and/or grow new legal business. We’re supposed to be rainmakers! Yet, anyone who knows me can appreciate that I’m not a salesperson. I hate it. I’m a scientist turned lawyer. In fact, this very requirement is often what drives great lawyers in house, and I get it. Nonetheless, this is the challenging task of a private practice partner, and for so many personal reasons, I’m here for the challenge! I’m truly grateful to Robert Grey, Alyssa Yuen, and all those at LCLD, as well as the good folks at Harley-Davidson Motor Company (Paul Krause and Adraea Brown), Exelon (Calvin Butler and David Ralph), and Nationwide (Marilyn McClure- Demers), who sponsored the program. Bottom line, I’m in a legal business development grind right now. If you want to help me grow my legal practice, and continue to show value in having diverse partners in the law firm environment, I’d sure appreciate your help. In the meantime, I’ll keep personifying legal excellence and trust that good things will come in due time. #ABF #IamBT #LCLDSPPMidwest2024 #DiversityinLawMatters #HardWorkPaysOff

Day 19 of the LMC challenge! Fellow law students, You're not just studying laws, you're shaping the future of justice. Every late night, early morning, and sacrificed weekend is worth it. You're becoming the leaders, advocates, and changemakers the world needs. But I know it's not easy. The pressure can be overwhelming. Doubts creep in. And exhaustion takes its toll. Don't let it consume you. You're capable, you're strong, and you're destined for greatness. Every challenge is an opportunity to grow, learn, and become a better version of yourself. Believe in yourself, your abilities, and your passion for justice. Stay focused, stay driven, and know that you're making a difference. Keep pushing forward, even when it's hard. Your hard work, resilience, and determination will pay off. You're not just law students; you're the future of justice. #lmc21dyaslinkedinchallenge #promotinglegalintelligence

DTUI.com provides consulting, training, and accredited continuing education courses encompassing a broad range of skills including interpersonal communication, management, cultural diversity and equity, and teamwork.
I predict that this draconian legal maneuver will not hold for long. Why? It’s untenable for a university system to attract the best and brightest to campuses that do not reflect the reality of the students lives they have experienced until higher education. A DEI office can only shut down if the leadership is not bold enough to stand against tyranny. You can remove a DEI statement without closing the office. You can change the office name to continue the work. You can fight against the erroneous perception that entrance exams are the best way to identify talent and question notions about meritocracy. You are an institution of knowledge. Were these campus leaders ever serious about DEI? “Among 5 specific questions on compliance, university spokespeople are expected to explain, "How has your institution ensured that there are no DEI offices or officers on campus, or no individuals or organizations performing the duties of a DEI office or officer?" #antiaffirmativeaction #dei #conservatives #history #excelence #meritocracy

I can't believe how three years have passed in the blink of an eye, and I am set to graduate next month from St Mary’s University, Twickenham with my LLB in Law. Today brought this reality even closer to me as I just received my marks for my extended essay dissertation, and I literally screamed in joy at seeing the high first marks on my work. My dissertation topic titled "Enhancing the United Kingdom's Responsibility in Preventing Healthcare Violations in Armed Conflict". Up next I’ll begin my Masters of Law LLM at King's College London #futurebarrister #humanrightslaw #lifeatkings
