Reasons to Attend


While the business case for diversity has been made, the challenges to creating and retaining an inclusive work force in the legal environment remain great. PLI's annual Beyond Diversity 2009: The Next Generation will examine new directions for diversity programs as well as the impact of the present economy on diversity initiatives.

Join an outstanding faculty as they discuss:

  • The impact of the recession on diversity programs: has there been a reduction in support?

  • Expanding the "pipeline": what role should the legal community play? What are some of the most effective initiatives?

  • The views of diversity directors: their concerns in the present economic environment; initiatives to expand the diversity umbrella; how they are addressing the issues of the physically challenged

  • The views of General Counsel: their new expectations and requirements for outside counsel

  • Practical advice on how the minority attorney can successfully direct his or her career in the current business downturn

  • The expectations of diverse associates—what partners and diversity directors need to know.

Throughout the program time will be left for questions, discussion, and sharing of best practices.

Whether you are a law firm partner or associate, in-house counsel, diversity, human resource and professional development director, or a firm recruiter, you will not want to miss this program. Specially priced at only $25! Reserve your seat today!
