The “Marketing procedure at the Chung and Dasgupta, LLP” set of cases explores the purposes of general and firm-specific human capital in worker performance measurement, feedback, and promotion/settlement choices. A leading law firm must decide whether to match an external partnership offer to among its top litigators, when the litigator is not yet eligible for partnership in accordance with the present rules through which associates are elected by the business. Another non-litigator at the firm performed just along with the star litigator, but has no external partnership offer, because skills and her role are particular to the firm, and not as useful to the marketplace that is exterior.
The case can be taught via a role play, where one pupil plays the part of the non-litigator, plus another student plays the function of an officially-assigned mentor from the venture group of the law firm. (If using the role play choice, instructors should utilize the typical advice case "The Promotion Process at Chung and Dasgupta, LLP," 914-044, and the parts: "Chung and Dasgupta: Information for Jordan Ramirez," 914-046, and "Chung and Dasgupta: Information for Casey Clark," 914-047.) The cases provide a rich backdrop to explore issues around business-specific human capital, and can be utilized to discuss subjective performance evaluation, best practices when giving employee comments, and careers at professional service companies.
