As society changes, so too does the nature of legal services. Staying abreast of change requires visionary leadership to make informed decisions on practices, policies and strategy, and then to employ the right team to deliver on the promise.
At Mawalla we take great care when identifying new talent. Once selected, new employees are extensively trained and mentored in their areas of specialisation. Besides the technical aspects of their job specific responsibilities, employees are encouraged to lead with innovation and vision. We believe that effective leadership is about strategically setting the benchmarks for African legal and business practice, but setting precedents and benchmarks is not enough. Every day we focus on effectively servicing our clients and leading our teams. Leadership is about the consistent behaviour that establishes track records of trust, respect, and accountability.
We lead through the Mawalla Way that forms part of the foundation of our culture. It’s a philosophy of ethics and services excellence that we follow when dealing with clients, employees and stakeholders.
