  • 2018 Asian American Employment Plan Survey
    State of Illinois Illinois Department of Central Management Services STATE OF ILLINOIS8 201 Asian American Employment Plan Respectfully submitted to the Illinois General Assembly by Central Management Services Dear Member of the Illinois General Assembly: The enclosed 2018 Asian-American Employment Plan evaluates the Asian-American representation within the State’s workforce through a transparent and comprehensive presentation of demographic data. The representation of Asian-Americans in the State’s workforce among coded employees was 3% in 2017. That representation is equal to the percent of Asian-Americans applying for positions with the State. It is also within one percent of the representation in Illinois’ labor market throughout the employee lifecycle, including in supervisory, technical, professional, and managerial positions. The State of Illinois provides the highest value to taxpayers when the workforce that powers State government is diverse and inclusive. Companies that capitalize upon the science behind diversity and inclusion are able to leverage their differences to better fulfill their organizational missions and become leaders in their industries. I have instructed my administration to explore opportunities to apply diversity and inclusion strategies in the State’s workforce to better reflect the growing diversity within our State and strengthen our ability to represent and serve the people of Illinois. For meaningful and sustainable change, State agencies must implement creative and effective internal mechanisms that provide structural support for their diversity efforts. Many have already begun. For example, 15% of agencies have designated a liaison to foster relationships within the Asian-American community. Many agencies offer diversity and unconscious bias training to Human Resources staff, Rutan interviewers, and other decision-makers in the employment selection process.

  • DEBUNKING the of CALENDARING & DOCKETING TECHNOLOGY
    DEBUNKING the of CALENDARING & DOCKETING TECHNOLOGY COPYRIGHT © 2018 ADERANT HOLDINGS, INC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY There are some technologies that emerge and seamlessly replace the old way of doing things, much like the way email replaced pen and paper as the primary means of business communication. Other technologies take longer to attain mass adoption because of issues with price, ease-of-use, or simply breaking old habits. Often, the biggest reason for rejecting technology comes down to trust. The calendar is perhaps the most quintessential element of a legal professional’s life. So why would he or she trust it to technology?–"I’ll calculate my own dates and deadlines!" Yet, according to Lawyers’ Mutual Insurance Company, the largest number of malpractice claims each year are the result of missed deadlines. The most common reason for missing deadlines is the lack of a calendaring system. Practice groups with cases in multiple jurisdictions face the enormous task of calculating court deadlines and staying on top of rules changes at multiple levels, which may include local, state, federal and even judge’s individual rules. It’s not uncommon for firms to handle several thousands of cases a year and with each come hundreds of deadlines and calendaring changes. Missed deadlines or court appearances can cause a disruptive and costly scramble to fix the problem; an impaired or ruined client relationship; and in some circumstances an expensive malpractice lawsuit and embarrassing press headlines. Preconceived notions about docketing and calendaring software may keep a firm from purchasing or lawyers within a firm from utilizing it.
