We view ourselves as a single cohesive institution. We treat all our clients as firm clients and all our people as firm members, not as clients or members of a particular office, practice, or sector. We also apply the same standards everywhere. To elect new partners, for example, we follow a centrally managed process for applying a single set of uniform criteria to potential partners in every office around the world.
This creates a strong institutional bond within the firm. It maximizes personal and interoffice collaboration and facilities office transfers, greatly increasing the flexibility and speed of our response to clients, thus helping us to provide distinctive client service. Operating as One Firm also increases our individual motivation, professional satisfaction, and personal enjoyment.
