The Finn Dixon & Herling Women’s Initiative Network

provides a community for attorneys to establish mentoring relationships, develop skills, network with clients, and find connection.

WIN maintains a balance between professional and social activities.

The group conducts regular meetings open to all attorneys at the firm, where participants engage in goal-setting and other professional development exercises. WIN also hosts events that have ranged from our networking-oriented golf clinic to a 16-course omakase dinner.

Our place in private equity and venture capital—industries in which women have historically lacked representation—makes it imperative and more valuable for FDH to provide a resource like WIN. We regularly invite clients and professional contacts to our events, providing a welcome sense of community for all while providing programming that create opportunities for our attorneys to forge relationships and share information with a larger community of like-minded professionals..

The benefits of WIN are not exclusive to the women of Finn Dixon & Herling.

Repeatedly, initiatives begun inside the group have benefitted the entire firm. Discussions that started at WIN gatherings have led us to revisit the firm’s parental leave policy, consideration of flexible working arrangements, and have resulted in an increase in firm events geared toward parents, caregivers, and families.
