AM is a match for Nisha at least in Merger Control. Big name in competition field.
SAM Competition Team is led by NC. AM would have never been made practice head, no matter how much she'd have tried.
Now, she'll become national head of Trilegal.
Surely AM must have had her reasons to take this big step but whoever knows her in competition law space and otherwise will say she has been one of the greatest assets to their practice. Undoubtedly she gave her best with full sincerity and took SAMโs competition practice forward by leaps and bounds specially in merger control. She has been a great flag bearer for women and a great mentor and colleague.
She got the best platform and gave her heart and soul for 10 years. Nobody can touch her on her sheet hard work, professionalism and ethics.
If she has chosen to move on, respect it with grace and take it on the chin that something must have gone horribly wrong. Try to fix the issues raised by her so that nobody else leaves for these reasons rather than misbehaving.
For the sake of her contribution itself to the practice, she deserves to be sent with utmost dignity and respect. If the future managing partners will misbehave with her it will hurt them and perception about their leadership and maturity much more than they can ever imagine.
Everyone is watching..Hope sense prevails!!
And donโt even get me started on the competition teamโtalk about a traffic jam at the top. With three Shroffs hogging the spotlight (and the profits), โฎโฎโฎ The teamโs so saturated that talented partners are suffocating. No wonder theyโve lost the two competition partners recently.โฎโฎโฎ
SAM needs to wake up and smell the coffee, or they will be left with nothing but a bunch of empty offices and an even emptier reputation.
NKO is replaceable, so, is AM.
As long as they have the power, there is already next in line wanting and desperate to take their position and do better than them.
World doesn't work like that.
