The next generation of legal leadership: the skills needed now and in the future
Date & Time
Thursday, September 17, 2026, 3:05 PM - 3:50 PM
Description
Alongside traditional leadership and technical skills, legal teams are now grappling with the impact of AI on recruitment, training, career development and the future of the profession itself. This raises important questions about judgement, supervision and the skills future legal leaders need.
This discussion will explore:
- How organisations can develop the next generation of legal leaders, while ensuring technology enhances rather than undermines professional development; and
- Which skills are critical now, and which will be in the near future.
