presence and communication skills, mentor and sponsor
relationships, branding and leadership/management skills and
business development. Each curriculum topic includes a fireside
chat with senior attorneys who describe the topic in the context of
their careers, followed by an intensive workshop with a
subject-matter expert who provides actionable strategies for
improvement, and then a third component, breakout sessions, where a
volunteer attorney or coach facilitates a dialogue with the small
groups of participants.
Duro is an associate in Seyfarth's Labor & Employment
department. She represents employers in single-plaintiff and
multiplaintiff litigation, and provides counseling on various
employment matters. Duro joined Seyfarth initially as part of the
