Hear from The Breakthrough Lawyer Program participants

“I found the Breakthrough Lawyer course presented a unique opportunity to step away from the busy life of a lawyer and think more strategically about my role and career. It provided a carefully selected multitude of materials that stimulate thought about current trends in the law and how best to use those trends to your advantage."

Clarissa Qasabian, Managing Counsel, Goodman Group

“I really enjoyed the program from start to finish. One of the biggest things I enjoyed was that I wasn't just sitting there listening and in the back of my mind thinking, well, how can I use this? The program really forced me to explore that in real time. There is really no other program like this out there that is specific for lawyers.”

Emily Purcell, Partner, KPA Lawyers

“Like a high-impact, mini-MBA, custom-designed for lawyers.” 

Nathaniel Rowe, Senior Lawyer, DLA Piper
