Who is a lawyer by training, but does not practice. I honestly couldn't tell you what our Chief Diversity Officer has accomplished since she's been here.

I've not seen anyone at our firm include pronouns in an email signature, but I've certainly seen that in emails from some of the left-leaning non-profit legal services organizations we partner with on pro bono matters.

Edit: this thread made me curious, so I searched my inbox for emails from our Chief Diversity Officer, and found that she started adding her pronouns to her emails within the past month. Maybe some email blast went out to the Association of Law Firm Diversity Officer telling them to do this.

And also, is it really necessary to include "she/her/hers"? Are there people out there who identify as "he/her/theirs"?
