Overview: 

If recent trends offer any indication, demand for law firm business professionals will continue to grow for the foreseeable future. Big law outfits are continuing to build their teams and expand capabilities. Smaller operators are following suit to ensure they build operational efficiencies and to maximize revenue potential in an increasingly competitive environment. This session brings together esteemed colleagues who have successfully navigated environments in both big law and smaller operations, with the aim of sharing their insights as to the opportunities and challenges that are present within each situation. In doing this, the goal is to educate attendees so that you come away with a better understanding on potential career opportunities, know the right questions to ask when presented with/are pursuing a role, and, coming away with an understanding of how to best position yourself to maximize your value proposition with respect to your current/future role(s).
