Linklaters Guest Speaker Event with Charlie Leadbeater

As part of our ongoing commitment to share our thinking, we invited Charlie Leadbeater, ranked by Accenture as one of the top management thinkers in the world, to speak to university students from across the country at a special event held in late February. Charlie shared his thinking on everything from the changing nature of innovation in a global economy to modern entrepreneurship.

The event gave students a unique insight in to how innovative thinking can offer a commercial edge in unprecedented times. Here are just a few comments from those who attended:

‘It was an extremely valuable experience. It showed the relevance of innovation in the business world in a way in which I found helpful.’

‘I found it both motivational and thought provoking.’

‘The event reaffirmed my perceptions of Linklaters as the leading premium global law firm.’

‘The guest speaker was amazing… I was also encouraged by how approachable the associates at Linklaters were. It was a thoroughly enjoyable way to spend an evening.’

‘Certainly the best event put on by a law firm.’
