​How to lead yourself, your team, and your firm

​Join Sophie Svenson, Head of Marketing and Partnerships at VXT, for a private dinner and guided discussion with Simon Tupman, author, speaker and mentor to law firms and legal professionals worldwide.

​This dinner brings together ambitious law firm leaders for an open, practical discussion on leading yourself, your people, and your firm. We’ll cover:

​1. The Four Leadership Principles
What does ‘leadership’ look like in today’s law firm? We’ll discuss what holds some firms back and explore how the application of each of Simon's four leadership principles is critical to a law firm’s success.

​2. What makes a good leader?
Seniority is not synonymous with leadership. Leadership can be embraced by anyone willing to learn. We will look at some of the philosophies and personality traits that define a good law firm leader.

​3. The business case
Every law firm needs to adapt to a changing world; leadership is the tool that can navigate your firm through change. We will discuss how leadership can bring about change and deliver commercial results.
