Legally Speaking Podcast · Patrick McCann: Authentic Leadership, Social Mobility & Building the Law Firm of the Future - S10E27 · 13 Jul 2026 podcast

And yes, you mentioned Lewis Silken.

I would highlight people go and look at Rock Um Glawski's um recent episode.

We've had him who made partner following his um career journey at Leeds uh Reed Smith and with Link Laters and also on Osborne Clark.

Go and check out Leanne Wright, who's a wonderful private equity partner, who has come onto the show as well.

Two wonderful firms and rightly so highlighted.

I want to now talk about something positive.

The apprentice

apprenticip revolution and we've also had Holly Moore who was the first to um get awarded a solicitor apprenticeship at ITV come on the show and share her journey.

But this route is really gaining momentum.

So what impact do you think the apprenticeships are having on the profession from a positive perspective and why should firms be embracing this pathway to qualification more?

And you're preaching to the choir here, we absolutely agree, and I think it's it it it's wonderful and there's so many positives and it's great that you mentioned George Hannah as well.

He's also been on the show following your very kind introduction actually, where we were all uh collaborating at an event at the Law Society last year, and Mayor Cropford indeed has been on the show.

So folks, go and check out those episodes from those inspiring individuals.

So s let's stick with the talent.

Yeah, we want all of the uh all of the hidden gems.

Many firms still have concerns about attracting and retaining the next generation of legal talent.

So what do the younger and aspiring lawyers actually want from the employers today that perhaps the previous generations did not prioritize or were too scared to speak up about?

I liken things too, imagine you've only got one car for the rest of your life.

You know, you're gonna get it serviced, you're gonna make sure it's MOT, you're gonna make sure that you're looking after it so you get longevity out of it, you get performance out of it, is exactly how we should be treating um ourselves.

And and thank you for sharing so many points as well as as well.
