TOPICS OF EXPLORATION
Resilience + Reinvention
​
The Australian legal market survived reasonably well during the worst of thepandemic of the last two years, in respect to its global counterparts. Yet signs of this shine dimming could be showing amidst what is being coined as a ‘legal recession’ from the media. New uncertainty over inflation, higher interest rates and international conflicts make leading in this new climate even more
tumultuous. It is another game changer and learning resilience to steer through yet another storm, is not only about the downside risk, but also what needs to be
done to reinvent for the next phase.
