Good Morning CI SIG Members -
The lateral market is hotter than ever, yet many firms continue to struggle with lackluster performance from lateral hires. Industry experts peg success rates at 50/50 - not a ringing endorsement as a fail-safe strategy. Yet proper due diligence can make a significant difference.
In this two-part series, we explore how to leverage data into higher success rates. Our conversation includes:
- Finding the right lateral hires - what the research shows
- Using data to determine portability of work and suitability of candidates
- Performing benchmark analyses to isolate talent gaps and opportunities
- Creating a talent matrix to evaluate operational models and succession planning needs
- Crafting a value proposition using data to attract and secure lateral candidates
- Supporting integration with CI
Learning Outcomes:
- Understand the current state of lateral hiring among law firms and identify the challenges and pitfalls of lateral hiring
- Learn a variety of research strategies and due diligence measures that will help improve success rates of lateral hires
- Delineate the role of CI in all stages of lateral hiring, from identification to integration
