The world’s top law firms rely on us

Beard Strategies has provided invaluable coaching, outplacement and talent management consulting services, working with our management team and broad range of lawyers and practices. We view them as a trusted advisor, partnering with us in continuingly advancing the quality and performance of our lawyers.
—Director of Practice Operations, Am Law 25 law firm
Beard Strategies helps attorneys turn their aspirations into reality. They understand the law firm world, employ practical approaches to career planning and development, and are committed to working with their clients until goals are met. Both partners and associates consistently describe the experience as “transformative.”
—Chief Human Resources Officer, Am Law 100 law firm
Beard Strategies demonstrated incredible commitment throughout our upward review. They were always prepared, met every deadline and exceeded our very demanding partners’ expectations. They also conducted over 400 interviews in three cities in three weeks. Instead of “No,” they always said, “How can we make this work?”
—Partner & Management Committee Member, Am Law 25 law firm
I found the upward review report very helpful (much more so than previous feedback reports) and have heard the same from other recipients. All the suggestions for improvement resonate with me as legitimate observations. I’m encouraged that my personal leadership objectives are getting traction!
—Head of Global Tax, Am Law 25 law firm
Beard Strategies kept my spirits up and never let me lose hope or confidence in myself. They gave me intelligent, thoughtful advice and personalized service. After a lengthy job search I got three job offers in a very difficult market.
