I am an associate at a UMM and my employment contract has a 4 month non compete (yes, even for associates) but I am thinking of lateraling. What are the implications of breaking a non compete?

I am not so much worried about getting sued, but about my current employer tanking my reputation if I leave and break the non compete.

Executive presence - what is ONE thing that helped you the most in significantly improving your executive presence during workshops, town halls, kickoffs etc.

Big 4 partners, can you provide any insights into the Partner v MD decision when you were up? Were you given the option? Can you share the pros v cons, especially from salary and pension standpoint.

How early in someone’s career do you generally identify if a homegrown person is partner material or not? M and up or earlier?

Partners,

My firm is immature in guiding development planning. I have energy to accelerate to the next level of responsibility.

What evidence distinguishes an analyst as ready for the next level?

I thought this question would be best for partners who’ve been in the industry for awhile...

For the Partners and really anyone in a leadership position: how do you motivate your people to take initiative? i.e. inferring next steps and taking action without waiting to be explicitly told to

What was the first thing you did once you become partner? I am assuming heavy pressure on selling more than what you were selling before?
