🌞 𝐋𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 — 𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐢𝐭𝐠𝐞𝐬 Last week, our associates had the privilege of participating in the Littler Academy held in the picturesque Sitges, Spain. This event provided a wonderful opportunity for them to engage with peers from various Littler offices throughout Europe. Amidst the sunny backdrop and networking sessions, the Academy served as a crucial moment for reflection on the dynamic challenges faced by labor and employment lawyers in today's fast-paced world. It allowed them to exchange valuable insights, forge new connections, and enhance their collective knowledge and skills. The experience was truly enriching, enabling them to not only broaden their understanding but also strengthen their professional bonds within the legal community. #LittlerAcademy #EmploymentLaw #LabourLaw #LegalProfession #LittlerEurope #TeamBuilding
