What Keeps the "C Suite" Up at Night
The rapid pace of change of the legal industry. Globalization of the economy and of legal practice. Increasing demands from clients and their concurrent desire to reduce legal spending. Finding creative and profitable ways to provide services. Increasing costs and re-pricing of services associated with the growth of large business partners. Helping people find work-life balance. Multi-generational challenges. Finding and developing the future partners, leaders and managers of law firms. How the current model of law firms will evolve and what will they look like in the future. How does all of this affect what we, as professional managers, do every day to enable the attorneys to service and support their clients?
Hear an experienced Executive Director share the concerns that he and his peers have for the legal industry and how these issues affect how we do our jobs.
