One great benefit of a growing business is that it provides career opportunities for staff and it’s exceptionally pleasing to announce Peter Nevill has completed his Professional Year and is our newest adviser, joining Karlson Tan and Michael Hart who are fast becoming our next gen of advisers already servicing clients and receiving wonderful feedback. All are highly qualified, great with clients and good humans. Witnessing personal growth within your team is super encouraging and continues to give purpose when days get long. Congrats and remember our best days are ahead of us! #pitcherpartnerssydneywealthmanagement #pitcherpartners #wealthmanagement #investmentadvice

Its not just a year for the election of country leaders with a huge percentage of the global population voting this year (including the UK) we also have a number of law firm leadership teams transitioning out, DLA and Dentons being two of the largest global law firms. It makes you think how can law firm leaders differentiate and what are the topics partners really need to be convinced on. A continuity vote isn't likely to fly. Certainly not at DLA or Dentons, but how can law firm leaders differentiate in a time of volatility, geopolitical change, and global competition is fierce. I would start with the people strategy, root and branch, you cant win the minds of the partners without a significant focus on people, this draws in topics like how diverse is your firm, what can be done to create a more inclusive environment and how do you deliver a culture that works? Profitability, all firms need to focus on profitability but behaviours become entrenched, wage inflation has been an issue and utilisation can only be ramped up so far, price savvy clients want value & service (emphasis there on service) and are not as excited about law firm profitability as the partners themselves. It's a difficult balancing act but you cant win an election without an agenda that enhances profitability. Change, digital transformation, AI, being on or ahead of the curve is vital but the larger the firm the more challenging it is to find a global solution, the more costly and the greater the risk when exploring new or emerging tech. Get that right and you are onto a winner, get that wrong and you wont be thanked! Surround yourself with the most impactful leaders not the loudest voices. Selecting the team around you is mighty challenging, you will have to make some difficult decisions but global decision making needs to be devolved and absent an exceptional support team you will fail to deliver on your strategy. This may mean drawing in mins from outside of the legal sphere. 2024 is going to be a showstopper! It's worth saying just how impressive Simon Levine has been as a leader and where he leaves DLA as a firm today!! #law #elections #lawfirm #fidessearch #webringtherightpeopletogether
