To celebrate International Women’s Day, we’re excited to announce Diversity In Leadership, a brand-new series of our General Counselling podcast!

Over the coming months, host Holta Loku will be talking to a range of top lawyers about their remarkable careers, with a hope to inspire lawyers from all backgrounds towards leadership roles.

In the first episode, Holta talks with two lawyers at the absolute top of their game.

They are:

Lauren Livingston - general counsel at CVC Capital Partners Seema Shah - partner at Simpson Thacher

Both these brilliant women hold leadership roles at two highly-respected firms; in this episode, they’ll be telling us how they got there, and the challenges they faced along the way.

We also touch upon how the legal space has become more representative in the last 10 years, what it can do to improve in the future, and the advice our guests would give to their younger selves.
