Law and Leadership: If You Build It, They Will Come

Lawyers lead our country. Yet law schools traditionally have not trained their students for leadership. With both the roles of lawyers and the value of a law degree evolving, how should legal education adjust to educate capable and ethical lawyers? How can deans, administrators, and faculties not only successfully lead their own institutions but also reflect leadership models for students to emulate? What are the opportunities for students to gain leadership opportunities while in law school? A panel of five effective leaders and experts will explore how legal education should embrace the growing field of leadership. Professor Rhode’s seminal work—Lawyers as Leaders—provides an invaluable framework for the discussion.

Deans Emeritus Kellye Testy (LSAC CEO) and Ken Randall (iLaw President) led this live dialogue about the state of legal education.

Joining the discussion this month were

  • Dean Matthew Diller, Fordham
  • Dean Garry Jenkins, Minnesota
  • Professor Deborah Rhode, Stanford
  • Dean Gordon Smith, Brigham Young
  • Associate Dean Leah Teague, Baylor

This engaging one hour discussion included a Q&A period at the end.
