February 2018: EG Director Scott Gibson comments on Women Deal Stars – Legal Business
Scott Gibson has been quoted in the February 2018 edition of Legal Business, commenting on female lawyers in the city deal scene.
Gibson stated that, unlike their male counterparts, high performing female lawyers often tend to dramatically underplay their projected performance when writing business plans. He noted the very real difficulties this causes for such women and for recruiters in lateral partner recruitment.
