How I Made Partner: 'Making Partner Requires Developing Excellent Technical Skills,' Says Amanda Brown of Skadden
“It goes without saying that making partner requires developing excellent technical skills, substantive expertise, sound judgment, and strong relationships with clients and colleagues.

Seek regular feedback, and—awkward as it may feel—insist on clear communication from your practice group leaders about where you stand.”
