Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I explore the antecedents and consequences of law firm staffing strategies. My dissertation consists of five chapters, including an introduction, an overview of the legal industry, two empirical papers, and a conclusion. Law firms have gone through a major transformation of their business and staffing strategies over the last decade, providing a valuable empirical context for my research questions. Faced with an increasingly competitive business environment, law firms have revised their staffing models to varying degrees, and the effectiveness of different staffing strategies is largely under-investigated. Several findings of my research are noteworthy. First, despite the general perception that law firms have mostly moved away from the internal development of human capital to a marketoriented external acquisition approach, firms differ in the extent to which they rely on internal versus external staffing strategies. Firms combine both internal and external staffing to varying degrees, and firm staffing strategies change across years. Second, as firms are embedded within the society and economy, firm-level phenomena are subject to multiple internal and external contingencies. I find that a firm's staffing is influenced by firm-level practices as well as the firm's structural and local market conditions. Third, staffing strategies are correlated with firmlevel performance outcomes and the relationship becomes more visible when the staffing strategy is measured over a longer time frame. This is consistent with the resource-based view of the firm and with human capital theory in that it takes time for resources, in this case human capital, to create positive returns. This study is among the few studies that examine the temporal relationships between resource inputs and performance outcomes. Overall, my dissertation shows that internal labor markets are still relevant and important for law firms' staffing strategies and performance. Despite the growing interest in taking advantage of workers' prior experience and staffing through external labor markets, a majority of firms still hire workers without experience and promote employees from within. They do so, however, to a varying degree, and the extent to which they rely on internal labor markets not only depends on both internal and external contingencies but also has a direct impact on firm level performance outcomes. The findings are relevant not only for professional service firms but also for firms that rely on human capital for their business operation and firm performance.

Download or read book Biological Collections written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2021-01-29 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biological collections are a critical part of the nation's science and innovation infrastructure and a fundamental resource for understanding the natural world. Biological collections underpin basic science discoveries as well as deepen our understanding of many challenges such as global change, biodiversity loss, sustainable food production, ecosystem conservation, and improving human health and security. They are important resources for education, both in formal training for the science and technology workforce, and in informal learning through schools, citizen science programs, and adult learning. However, the sustainability of biological collections is under threat. Without enhanced strategic leadership and investments in their infrastructure and growth many biological collections could be lost. Biological Collections: Ensuring Critical Research and Education for the 21st Century recommends approaches for biological collections to develop long-term financial sustainability, advance digitization, recruit and support a diverse workforce, and upgrade and maintain a robust physical infrastructure in order to continue serving science and society. The aim of the report is to stimulate a national discussion regarding the goals and strategies needed to ensure that U.S. biological collections not only thrive but continue to grow throughout the 21st century and beyond.
