I am a (female) senior associate at a top 10 UK firm. Although I have had very good feedback at all my assessments for the last four years (I am seven years qualified) I am concerned that, in terms of partnership track essentials, they may think that I may lack the necessary ‘client bonding’ skills.

My assessors and departmental colleagues have no problem with my technical legal skills or my other contributions, both on an individual and team basis, to the department and the firm as a whole. The only item that I am perhaps weak on is on the ‘marketing’ side and the building of new business.
