NEW YORK—International law firm Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP announced that the Firm is partnering with Columbia Business School Executive Education to offer a new business skills and financial literacy training program to incoming and third-year U.S.-based associates.
纽约国际律师事务所Weil，Gotshal&Manges LLP宣布，该事务所正与哥伦比亚商学院高管教育部合作，为即将入学的和第三年在美国工作的员工提供新的商业技能和金融素养培训计划。
“At Weil, we have always trained our associates to be commercially minded business lawyers so that we as a Firm can effectively partner with our clients to help them achieve strategic goals. This new enhanced training will further our impact here,” said Weil Executive Partner Barry Wolf. “The program also supports our new advancement protocol, announced last spring, under which we are shortening our partner and counsel track by two years.”
“在威尔，我们一直将我们的合伙人培养成具有商业头脑的商业律师，以便我们作为一家公司能够有效地与客户合作，帮助他们实现战略目标。威尔的执行合伙人巴里•沃尔夫（barry wolf）说：“这种新的强化培训将进一步扩大我们在这里的影响力。”“该计划还支持我们去年春天宣布的新的推进方案，根据该方案，我们将缩短我们的合作伙伴和律师轨道两年。”
Amir Ziv, faculty director of the program and a professor of Professional Practice at Columbia Business School, commented: “We designed this curriculum with Weil through a collaborative process. Columbia Business School faculty that are part of the Weil program are at the forefront of research in their respective fields, and we look forward to teaching actionable skills to Weil associates that will support them in their professional development.”
哥伦比亚商学院（columbia business school）专业实践教授、该项目的教授阿米尔•齐夫（amir ziv）评论道：“我们与威尔通过一个协作过程设计了这门课程。作为Weil项目的一部分，哥伦比亚商学院的教员处于各自领域研究的前沿，我们期待着向Weil员工传授可操作的技能，以支持他们的专业发展。
The four sessions for incoming associates will take place over two full-days during Weil’s annual week-long New Associate Orientation in the Firm’s New York office the week of September 23. In addition, Weil is partnering with Columbia to offer a separate full-day training session on more advanced business skills for all third-year associates in November. These programs are in addition to the approximately 200 other training sessions offered within the Firm for associates throughout the year.
The curriculum for incoming associates will include courses on doing business globally; corporate governance; an introduction to accounting, financial principles and valuation; and effective communication strategies. The agenda for third-year associates will address more advanced concepts, such as team dynamics and motivation; earnings quality and revenue recognition; and negotiating effectively. The program was tailored for Weil’s practice and reflects feedback from associates, counsel and partners.
新入职员工的课程将包括全球业务、公司治理、会计、财务原则和估值入门以及有效沟通策略等课程。第三年员工的议程将涉及更先进的概念，如团队动力和动机；收益质量和收入确认；以及有效的谈判。该计划是为威尔的实践量身定做的，反映了同事、律师和合伙人的反馈。
David Yohai, Co-Chair of Weil’s Professional Development Committee, commented: “What makes our program unique is that incoming associates will learn how to practice with a commercial mindset upon entering the Firm, and then have a chance to build on these concepts in their actual work experience and through additional training. During their third year, they will again take part in immersive business training, allowing them to leverage their experience and apply principles of leadership and team management in their day-to-day work.”
Weil的专业发展委员会联席主席David Yohai评论道：“让我们的项目与众不同的是，新员工进入公司后将学习如何以商业心态进行实践，然后有机会在他们的实际工作经验和额外培训中建立这些概念。在第三年，他们将再次参加沉浸式业务培训，使他们能够充分利用自己的经验，在日常工作中运用领导力和团队管理原则。
Annemargaret Connolly, Co-Chair of Weil’s Professional Development Committee, commented: “Business-savvy lawyers who can speak the language of their clients and understand their concerns provide more valuable service, and we are very excited to partner with Columbia Business School in this endeavor.”
韦尔专业发展委员会的联合主席Annemargaret Connolly评论说：“精通商务的律师，能讲他们的客户的语言，了解他们的关心，提供更有价值的服务，我们非常兴奋地与哥伦比亚商学院合作。
