Host a Special Screening of Balancing The Scales
A unique and powerful way to engage and educate members of your firm, legal department, or bar association about gender and diversity challenges in the workplace.
Here’s how a screening of Balancing The Scales, followed by a Q&A, panel discussion or CLE presentation with Filmmaker/Attorney Sharon Rowen will benefit your firm or legal department:
-
Men and women lawyers and clients can see and hear candid conversations about the challenges faced by women lawyers. Male allies and leaders will learn about strategies to nurture and retain women in leadership roles.
​
-
Firm leaders will come away with a better understanding of the positive impact diversity and inclusion will have on the bottom line. The research is clear – a diverse leadership leads to a better bottom line.
​
-
CLE ethics and gender/bias elimination CLE credit for this program has been approved by most states. An in-house screening/presentation can be video conferenced to all of a firm's offices so that all lawyers can receive CLE credit at no additional cost.
