Is your firm struggling to retain top talent including partners?


Our solution is to analyse your workplace culture to understand what culture you have and why.  We do this by conducting, surveys focus groups and interviews.   


Our audit report provides complete peace of mind knowing that you have the knowledge to make the right decisions on how to improve employee engagement and operational effectiveness.



Your workplace culture is your greatest asset 

​You may have noticed colleagues feeling burnt out. The pressures of managing clients through difficult times, meeting billing targets, and leading teams often result in long hours, leaving many partners and senior associates feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and stressed.


Yet, toxic workplace culture is frequently underestimated.  Many senior leaders assume the issue has been addressed, but dissatisfaction with firm culture remains one of the top reasons lawyers leave for competitors.  A negative environment not only affects retention but also impacts client service, firm reputation, and overall profitability.


When lawyers feel unsupported, engagement drops, collaboration weakens, and performance suffers—creating a cycle that’s difficult to break.


We understand that cultural challenges can be complex and difficult to pinpoint therefore we have developed services that will help you to reduce employee turnover and increase productivity.
