In search of the next generation of leaders in its information technology, development, client value, innovation, marketing, business development and finance departments, Norton Rose Fulbright has tapped 26 high-achieving nonmanagers from the firm’s U.S. offices for a senior-level mentorship academy in Houston this month.

For the law firm, which has added more than 100 attorneys since 2021 in the U.S. and nearly as many business services personnel, the mentorship program is designed to develop talent—and ultimately a succession plan—within the firm’s various departments, U.S. managing partner Jeff Cody said.
