Description
What are the skills and qualifications required to become a managing partner? When you take up your role as a managing partner, do you divest yourself of files so you can focus on being managing partner, or do you keep some file load as career insurance? What are the pros and cons of retaining a file load? If you become a career managing partner, what is your next career move? Does being a managing partner equip and qualify you for other management roles?
