As the firm’s Lawyer Talent Partner since 2003, Lisa Keyes takes a strategic and practical approach to co-leading King & Spalding’s lawyer talent initiatives, ensuring they align with client needs, talent needs, and the firm’s strategy. Working with a network of practicing lawyers and professional staff, Lisa’s focus includes partner performance and development, as well as collaboration with colleagues who lead recruitment and integration of lateral partners, associate recruitment and integration, and professional development resources for all lawyers. The Lawyer Talent team also directs the lawyer compensation, evaluation, and promotion processes, working closely with practice group leadership, firm committees, and individual lawyers. Collaboration, inclusion, and opportunity are part of the firm’s talent strategy and therefore also a focus of the Lawyer Talent team, as are alumni initiatives.
As a leader in the Professional Development community, Lisa has been a long-term member of the planning committee of the Lawyer Talent Leadership Forum, an invitation-only group, and a featured speaker at programs, including those sponsored by the National Association of Law Placement and Professional Development Consortium.
Prior to becoming the firm's Professional Development Partner full-time in 2003, Lisa developed extensive experience in a wide variety of technology-related matters, including outsourcing, intellectual property licensing, software development and licensing, e-commerce, and professional consulting services.
