Paul, Weiss has joined the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion coalition in a pledge to advance diversity and inclusion in the workplace. The firm is among the first U.S. law firms to join the coalition, which now includes more than 270 U.S. companies and professional services firms. The initiative is the broadest-ever CEO-driven business commitment to advance diversity and inclusion. As Brad Karp said, in signing the pledge, "Conversations about diversity challenges too often occur behind closed doors and too often are sugar-coated. That hasn’t worked. To make real progress, the conversations need to be honest and transparent, be led by senior executives, and address what drives success and what holds it back."
