Join us for a thought-provoking International Men’s Day event designed specifically for those working within the legal profession. Bringing together experts in leadership, communication and workplace wellbeing, this event will explore how legal professionals can thrive under pressure, foster supportive workplace cultures and develop the skills needed to lead effectively in a demanding environment.
The programme features engaging sessions including “Setting the Tone: What Great Teams Do When the Pressure’s On”, Stephen Eccles, founder of Inner Launch, will examine why speaking up can be difficult, particularly when deadlines tighten and expectations rise. Through interactive discussion and practical exercises, delegates will explore how workplace culture influences confidence, learn techniques to help colleagues feel heard, and develop reflective listening skills that can strengthen communication and support wellbeing across teams.
The second session, “Leading a Law Firm: Lessons Learned and Tales from the Front Line”, sees Peter Jackson draw on more than two decades of law firm management experience. Having navigated many of the challenges that leaders face throughout their careers, Peter will share candid insights, practical lessons and real-life stories from the front line of legal practice. His session will explore the qualities needed to lead successfully, overcome challenges and maintain perspective in what can often be a highly pressured profession.
This event provides a valuable opportunity for legal professionals at all levels to reflect on leadership, resilience and workplace culture while marking International Men’s Day and its theme, “The Future Is Everyone.”
