What Practice Leaders Should be Doing to Advance Diverse Talent
Thomson Reuters recently sat down with M. Scott Peeler, Co-Leader of the Government Enforcement & White Collar practice and an Executive Committee member at Arent Fox, to discuss his role in advancing diverse talent, driving inclusion, and helping to implement the Mansfield Rule’s internal target of 30% diverse talent slates for all leadership positions at the firm.
Scott described the firm’s adoption of the Mansfield Rule, in partnership with Diversity Lab, as the natural evolution of Arent Fox’s strong history of championing diversity since its founding in 1942. “It’s important to always remember, that our firm was founded by individuals whose talents were overlooked by most major law firms because of their religion,” says Scott, adding that “diversity, inclusion, and empowerment are part of Arent Fox’s DNA.”
