Curriculum
The Learning Model
Case studies, lectures, classroom discussions, and small group discussions
focused on professional service firms afford participants the opportunity
to deliberate on the determinants of sustained firm success.
Case studies on law firms and other professional service firms give participants exposure
to real-world issues and help them work through possible approaches
and solutions to the problems that professional service firm leaders
confront. Participants practice making decisions about challenging
real-life management problems in professional service settings.
Topics
The program offers participants perspective, concepts, management
tools, and skills to help them be more effective as law firm
leaders. It is designed to sharpen the leadership skills of professionals who have executive responsibilities in law firms by exploring
with them the topics of strategy in law firms, organizational alignment,
practice economics and segmentation, motivation of professionals,
compensation, managing the producer-manager dilemma, nurturing an
inclusive work environment, leading change in a law firm, and effective
leadership.

“The "tried and true" case
study method once again proved to be an excellent teaching approach
to understanding and navigating complex management and leadership
issues. The faculty did an exceptional job at applying case study
scenarios to contemporary issues we all are facing in today's law
firms.
The case study scenarios hit so close to home, I suspected the faculty had been
conducting a covert surveillance program at our firm for the past 2 years.”
