EDITORIAL
LEXPERT ZENITH AWARDS:
AT LEXPERT, we have wanted to celebrate Diversity and Inclusion since the Ze-
nith Awards began about six years ago. But we were concerned there were not
enough actions to celebrate. ere were good intentions certainly, and good
beginnings. Measurable changes to the profession, and therefore, society, were
more difficult to establish.
is year we took the plunge. And there are many, many actions worth cel-
ebrating. Individuals who have broken barriers themselves, and then moved on
to challenge the status quo for others similarly discriminated against; law firms
that have concretized their ambitions with measurable benchmarks; and corpo-
rate legal departments boldly leading the charge.
ere are also various action groups among the Winners, representing their
respective constituencies. We know we have not included all of the action groups
in these Awards. e Award winners come from nominations, and so you may
find them uneven. Times have certainly changed. We have gone from wondering
if we would have enough actions to celebrate, to worrying about the organiza-
tions we may have le out.
We plan on continuing to write stories on the attainment of further Diversity
and Inclusion in the legal profession, and beyond, so please let us know of your
progress in these regards.
