Case Study Four: New Partner Training

"We have been really impressed since the programme with the genuine commitment to ongoing follow-up, both with the delegates individually and with the firm as a whole. He has been involved in the ongoing evaluation of the programme and has helped the firm’s Training & Development Department to develop a strategy for evaluating the training." Professional Development Team, Law Firm

Background

Having grown at 15% pa for several years, the firm had passed the 50 partner barrier, and was creating 4-6 new partners every year. As the firm grew in both size and complexity the partners were being increasingly expected to run sizable teams and deliver outstanding results. The training partner was therefore tasked with establishing a new partner training programme.

Opportunity

To develop a new partner training programme that would equip partners for their new roles. Action taken The firm initially contacted a number of potential training providers to talk through their challenges and aspirations. Once they had chosen to work with us, we:

  • Interviewed the new partners as well as cross-section of recently promoted partners, to establish the priorities and the goals of the programme
  • Worked with the partners and the training team to design a series of sessions that would meet these goals
  • Delivered a series of 4, half-day sessions, with partners undertaking specific follow-up with their teams in between the sessions
  • Worked with the training team to measure the effectiveness of the programme

Results

The programme has become a standard requirement for new partners, and was subsequently repeated for partners who had been promoted in the previous 3 years.
