Why Pearl

Holly and Ann marie

Quite frankly, because we know Biglaw. We’ve worked with scores of top AmLaw 100 firms – due to the nature of our NDAs, we can’t name them specifically – to implement successful high-performance peer advisory groups over the past two decades that have directly impacted their organizations’ bottom line in retention, recruiting, business development, and so much more.  

What’s more, we know good training – we’ve been doing it for nearly two decades. Ann marie founded the first academic program in sales and business development in the country at the University of San Diego and has helped hundreds of lawyers build multimillion dollar books of business while increasing their satisfaction and well-being at work. Holly is a former litigator and general counsel. We know lawyers and what makes them tick – and we know that to not merely survive but to thrive, law firms must ditch tired training models and instead look to create sustainable peer-driven programming that meets the needs of humans first.

No single individual, no matter how smart and capable, can compete with the collective intelligence and dedication of a dynamic group of interested individuals working in consort to achieve greatness. In this dynamic six-month program, we train organizations how to implement a peer advisory coaching model that is self-sustaining long after we’ve left the building. Participants will learn the essential building blocks of a successful peer advisory model, rules of engagement for creating a high-performance coaching group, and coaching techniques.
