When Discover Financial’s legal department set out to create a mentor program that focused on diversity and inclusion, they wanted to make sure a program was created that would allow them to collaborate and work alongside their outside counsel. Discover’s legal department came to the realization that there was an opportunity to create a program that could help outside firms with leadership development.
Due to the firm’s close relationship with the legal team at Discover, several of the firm’s associates were invited to participate in Discover’s diversity mentoring program last year. Birmingham associates James Roberts and Miya Moore had the honor of being involved in the pilot year.
