In the war for human capital, lawyer workplaces of all sizes from coast to coast find sabbaticals to be a workable, worthwhile tool in their attorney retention arsenal.  This practical 140-page manual is authored by Lori Simon Gordon, a Northwestern J.D./M.B.A., who took a sabbatical from her partnership at Latham & Watkins.  The manual includes written sabbatical policies and practice successes from numerous firms, including firms such as Arnold & Porter, Perkins Coie, and Holland & Hart, as well as best practice comparisons from corporations.  The manual addresses common management concerns and client reactions, and covers the logic and logistics of making time for lawyer sabbaticals in busy and thriving practices.
