What Is the Legal rEvolution?

Today’s law firms are facing unprecedented change - significant shifts in demand, well-capitalized disrupters and the largest intergenerational transfer of business and leadership in industry history.

A new cadre of leaders is rising and will define the industry’s direction for the coming decades. Authentic, bold, self-aware and inclusive, these visionaries require a novel set of skills to drive change in their firms and in the way law firms do business.


You can be one of those leaders.

Join the rEvolution.


Leading the Legal rEvolution: Advanced Training Program

Leading the Legal rEvolution is a 6-month, immersive training program that combines onsite programming with independent team work and problem-solving to simulate real-world challenges and imbue leaders with essential skills to drive change within their organizations. Using a proven curriculum developed over decades of working with AmLaw 200 leaders, Leading the Legal rEvolution is ideal for current and incoming law firm leaders who want to break away from historical models and metrics and lay the foundation to challenge status quo, break the mold, and fix what is not yet broken.

  • Translating and using data to drive transformation and make better, more informed decisions

  • Creating a springboard for motivating and managing change

The Experience

The program kicks-off with an intensive two-day retreat during which leaders will learn about and discuss the dynamic changes across the legal industry and the impact these have on the future of law firms, their clients and their talent.

This comprehensive program includes:

  • Two days onsite in early 2019 – an intensive retreat to kick-off the session
  • Virtual discussions and working groups with members of the cohort
  • In-depth exploration of a high-priority topic of interest (student-determined)
  • Periodic, scheduled check-ins with course instructors
  • Individual leadership assessment and coaching call
  • Independent research and networking opportunities
  • One-day onsite capstone in summer 2019
We will engage in interactive exercises to surface top priority areas of interest for the cohort and their firms, from which we will construct task forces to work independently to create a vision for the future of law. The program culminates with a dedicated day to deliver recommendations and findings, explore leadership profiles, and engage in in-depth learning about the most effective change management tools and techniques.
