Pennsylvania Bar News covered Firm Chair Jami McKeon’s participation in a discussion about the path to law firm leadership at a recent meeting of the Pennsylvania Bar Association’s Large Law Firm Committee. Ms. McKeon spoke about the importance of honing one’s skills as a lawyer and being open to opportunities to participate in various firm committees or initiatives, regardless of their size or importance.
“I’m a big believer that you should always say yes, whether it’s the cafeteria committee or something else, because you learn something from every role and, more importantly, people have a chance to see your leadership skills,” said Ms. McKeon.
