Description

For some lawyers, the path to partnership is a straight line: articling, associate, partner, all at the same firm. For others, it's a bit more like a zigzag. In this episode, Jeremy sits down with Ahmed Malik, a lawyer whose career has taken him from a small-town Saskatchewan practice, to a national firm, to now leading the real estate practice at a large Western Canadian firm. Ahmed shares how he's approached each of his career transitions - the ones driven by necessity, and the ones driven by opportunity - and offers practical advice for associates trying to figure out whether it's time to stay or go. Featured guest: Ahmed Malik, Partner Breaking Down the Bar is hosted by Jeremy Ellergodt.
