Partners are lacking crucial business skills – it is time law firms introduce formal training in project management, says Andrew Sharpe (*That's project management training)
I have had two careers. For a short time, I was a military engineer before turning to law via the qualifying law degree route to become a solicitor within a City law firm, eventually becoming a partner.
In the military I worked in a highly motivated, highly trained team and task-orientated environment with a clear, largely meritocratic, hierarchical management structure.
