Post-COVID office dynamics and leadership training key for law firms moving forward

Leslie Packer, managing partner at Ellis & Winters, does not see the legal profession going back to what it was before COVID. In an interview with Invest:Insights, Packer said she thinks that remote work has increased efficiency in many areas of practicing law except for training new lawyers, an area where there is no replacement for being in a traditional office setting. There are systemic structures that need to be broken to fully address the gap in corporate women leadership everywhere, specifically in the legal profession. As such, law firms need to be flexible, offer paternity leave, and realize that women can lead just as effectively as their male counterparts, Packer said.
