ATLANTA TO HOST PREMIER ASSEMBLY OF MANAGING PARTNERS FROM SOUTHEASTERN LAW FIRMS
The Managing Partner Forum to Address Critical Issues Affecting Law Firms in Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee
ATLANTA - April 13, 2005 - The Managing Partner Forum, one of the nation’s most comprehensive programs specifically designed to address and solve the challenges of running a successful and profitable law firm, will hold its first Southeastern Conference on June 7 at one of downtown Atlanta’s most legendary institutions, the Capital City Club located at 7 Harris Street in downtown Atlanta. The full-day event will attract more than 100 managing partners and leaders representing top law firms with ten or more attorneys from Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.
Based on highly successful programs in Florida and Texas, the Southeastern Forum provides invaluable insights on critical issues and unique peer networking opportunities said John L. Remsen, Jr., President & CEO of The Managing Partner Forum.
“We are delighted to bring The Forum to Atlanta,” said Remsen. “The demand for quality programs such as ours has been strong. In order to meet those needs, we created a Forum Advisory Board consisting of managing partners from some of the most respected law firms in the region. The input from the prestigious group determined the agenda, which includes maximum audience participation and peer interaction.”
The topics for the Southeastern Forum will address growth strategies, law firm mergers, firm governance, compensation plans, firm culture, team networking, recruiting, marketing and diversity issues. The opening session will highlight the results of the pre-Forum survey that examined the increasingly important role of the managing partner in leading a successful law firm. The participants will learn how their individual leadership style compares to others at firms of similar size in the Southeastern United States.
“In addition, we are looking forward to holding The Forum at the historic Capital City Club, which has remarkable, yet intimate, facilities conducive for top-level business meetings and networking.”
Remsen, one of the nation’s most recognized authorities in the field of law firm marketing, is President & CEO of The Remsen Group, a consulting firm that provides a full array of marketing services to law firms. Remsen’s impressive legal background combined with his marketing experience qualifies him as a knowledgeable speaker, author and researcher on legal marketing topics. The Remsen Group recently relocated its headquarters to Atlanta to better serve the needs of managing partners nationwide.
