Title: Best Friends at the Bar
Description: "In her continuing quest to raise the retention rates for women lawyers, Susan Smith Blakely … shifts her focus to law firm leaders and their responsibility for helping women lawyers meet the challenges of law practice and for retaining the considerable talent that women lawyers bring to firms and to the profession. Through the use of proven leadership concepts, the author tells law firm leaders what others are afraid to tell them about the failings of their leadership styles, particularly as applied to young women lawyers. As a former law firm partner, a chief of staff in public service, and a wife and mother, [the author] understands leadership for women lawyers and how it must be responsive to the values that are unique to women in the workplace."--Back cover.
