Today marks International Women’s Day (IWD), a global day to celebrate the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. This year’s theme for IWD is #InspireInclusion. When we inspire others to value women’s inclusion, we create a better world, and when women are inspired to be included, there’s a sense of belonging, relevance, and empowerment. At Babst Calland, we are proud of our incredible group of women attorneys and professionals who bring their unique perspectives and skills to the Firm. We celebrate you, and to all women everywhere, we see you, we support you, and we stand with you.

On March 21, 2023, Babst Calland’s Women’s Initiative hosted a panel discussion on “What Makes a Great Outside Counsel?” Alana Fortna, Vice President, Counsel, Environmental at Paramount Global Department, Emilie Delo, Assistant General Counsel at SAE International, and Brandy Erbelding, Counsel at City Line Capital, offered their perspectives and shared advice with Babst Calland’s women attorneys regarding the qualities that make certain outside counsel stand out above the rest.
