Boardrooms & Roundtables:

Practice Group Professionals Roundtable

Overview

Our Practice Group Professionals Roundtable is designed to provide individuals who work closely with department heads, practice group leaders, and other law firm partners in practice management positions with a forum for energetic and strategic discussion.  It is the only organization for the new and growing roles in practice management and business managers for law firm departments and practice groups.  All discussions are confidential to the Roundtable members.

The goal of the Roundtable is to bring together individuals in similar roles to share ideas and experiences in their positions, participate in interactive presentations led by guest speakers, and discuss the “best practices” their firms are implementing. The Roundtable now meets two times a year in person and two virtually. Topics addressed during our meetings have included:

  • Creating and implementing effective business plans
  • Building high-performing practice groups
  • Understanding the engagement of group members to increase retention and commitment
  • Enhancing delegation and supervision
  • Using financial metrics and dashboards
  • Enhancing lateral hire recruitment and retention
  • Running effective practice group meetings and
  • Best practices in running a successful practice group.

All meetings will be designed to include facilitated conversations based on topics suggested by the members. The sessions will focus on topics of specific interest to the group. The in-person meetings will include a professional development segment to be presented by a well-known authority on relevant topics for the members’ roles.  Time will also be built for roundtable sharing among members on issues of specific interest to the members. The in-person meeting schedule will run from noon one day through lunch the second day, enabling many people to fly in and out in two days.
