The Great Resignation is upon us. According to Microsoft, more than 40% of workers around the world are considering quitting their jobs or changing their professions. This could be a positive thing for the legal sector, as it could represent an opportunity for new talent to enter the industry. However, it could also be detrimental as talent could walk out the door if law firms don’t play their cards right. What can firms do to attract and retain talent and manage this risk? Join this webinar to hear the panel explore possible ideas and solutions on:

  • Making hybrid ‘work’
  • Finding the right tools & technology to help staff do their job more effectively
  • Opening up a wider pool of talent
