Looking back & forward
How have we performed and what are our plans?
| Targets for 2008/09 | Progress | |
|---|---|---|
| Embed our CR into performance management |
Lawyer and business services appraisal forms are being revised to include reference
to CR work. Partner appraisal forms to be amended. Partner selection forms to be reviewed. |
|
| Investigate and fully report on our diversity issues so that we can set meaningful targets for implementation next year | An internal paper on this topic was presented to the firm’s Management Committee, leading to the steps laid out below. | |
| New targets for 2009/10 | Steps either taken or to be taken to achieve target | |
| Embed our CR into performance management | Appraisal forms for partners and fee earners to include pro bono/community criteria for assessment and recognition. | |
| Achieve a more diverse partnership reflecting our associate population | Gender representation in the partnership is a key focus of management. The Management Committee has agreed that the aim of the partnership should be to get to a position where at least 30% of our partners are female. A principal step in meeting this goal will be the Management Committee’s review of proposed partner candidate promotion as compared to the corresponding associate gender representation of the underlying group and office. This will be a regular agenda item for the Management Committee. |
