Plesner's leadership programme is centred around three themes or skills that, accord- ing to employee and leader assessments, are essential to the working environment and everyday life in an organisation like Plesner, ie that the leader
•is framing
•allows development •shows appreciation
Using these three themes as the underly- ing basis, the programme enhances young attorneys' ability to become visible leaders, set clear targets for work, handle conflicts, provide constructive feedback, and moti- vate others by focusing on strengths and potentials.

FULL-CIRCLE LEADERSHIP ASSESSMENT
At Plesner we endeavour to enhance good leadership culture at all levels of our orga- nisation. We do so through training, lea- dership assessment and regular feedback, among other things. In the autumn of 2018, we introduced a new 350-degree leadership assessment for partners and experienced attorneys.
The assessment indicates how the individual leader's immediate superiors, colleagues and subordinates evaluate strengths and possible areas of growth. The aim is to pro- vide leaders with personal and structured feedback regarding their leadership charac- teristics, including how they are perceived by others.
The 360-degree assessment should be seen as a development tool and a springboard for further professional and personal develop- ment. The subsequent feedback and dia- logue leads into a personal action plan that is to be used by the leader to focus on the areas of development in the future.
