Diversity, inclusion and wellbeing At Dentons, inclusion and diversity are not just core values – they are an integral part of our strategy.
Building a more inclusive and diverse law firm is core to our strategy because it leads to better business outcomes for our clients, our communities and for Dentons.
We believe in creating an environment where everyone can thrive.
We work hard to nurture a sense of inclusion that is empowering to the individual, to the teams and to the Firm.
Examples of our inclusion strategy include a focus on allyship programmes, access initiatives, mentoring programmes, and a series of events and conversation focussed on equity and inclusion.
Our Inclusion Networks also play a huge part in fostering a sense of belonging and support for everyone at the firm.
These groups include GLOW (LGBTQ+), Fusion (Asian professionals), Black Professionals Network, Inspire (gender equality), Accessibility (disability, neurodiversity, and long term conditions), and our Parents and Carers network.
Innovation Here at Dentons, innovation isn't something that sits in isolation – we believe it comes from everywhere and from everyone, and it is critical to our position as the world's largest global law firm.
We do this by challenging ourselves to identify and implement innovation across all areas of service delivery to our clients.
We have created a highly bespoke programme for our trainees, to enhance their knowledge around legal innovation and digital transformation.
At every seat rotation, each trainee will undertake an innovation project, and with the help of their designated Innovation Training Scheme supervisor, and Innovation team, will create a project based on one of the following categories: AI (Machine Learning), Document Automation, Design Thinking, RPA (Robotic Process Automation), Data Visualization or a Business Case.
These projects, not only help to broaden trainees' understanding of legal innovation, but also help us to identify and address innovation gaps within the firm.
