Tournament of Lawyers: The Transformation of the Big Law Firm
ISBN: 9780226278780 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 205 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Tournament of Lawyers traces in detail the rise of one hundred of the nation's top firms in order to diagnose the health of the business of American law. Galanter and Palay demonstrate that much of the large firm's organizational success stems from its ability to blend the talents of experienced partners with those of energetic junior lawyers driven by a powerful incentive--the race to win "the promotion-to-partner tournament." This calmly reasoned study reveals, however, that the very causes of the spiraling growth of the large law firm may lead to its undoing.
