Going the Extra Mile in Building a Practice
When Elina saw an opportunity to mix business with pleasure, her colleagues weren't surprised. She sent an email to colleagues about an upcoming vacation to Brazil—asking whether they had any business contacts in Rio de Janeiro who might benefit from a "get acquainted" visit. Elina had already established herself as an energetic self-starter, handling projects such as organizing the firm's annual conference on nuclear energy controls. That same spirit of initiative paid off in a well-received presentation on nuclear liability and export controls, delivered in Portuguese to a key leader in South America's nuclear industry.
