SUMMARY:Managing and leading the smaller firm: what characteristics and s
 kills do we need?
DESCRIPTION:Small and medium-sized firms require strong and capable leade
 rship to succeed. Very often the managing or senior partner will have a 
 disproportionately large effect on culture\, direction and performance i
 n a smaller firm. These are issues that are now more important than ever
 . Leaders have distinct challenges in smaller firms. Very often they wil
 l be required to maintain or develop a client practice. They often do no
 t have as much time to devote to management as they wish or should. They
  will be required to maintain\, manage and coordinate the client practic
 e. They also then need to manage and lead the firm\, dealing with issues
  such as development of lawyers\, firm culture and performance\, busines
 s development and so on. This session will allow law firm leaders to ref
 lect on panellists’ practical experiences\, considering what skills and 
 attributes are required to lead the smaller law firm as well as how to d
 evelop them.\n\nThis session should be practically helpful for all curre
 nt and future law firm leaders in small and medium law firms. It should 
 also be of assistance to those considering starting their own law firm.\
