NEXT-LEVEL LEADER PROGRAM

Turn High Performers Into Confident Leaders 

Next-Level Leader: The 4-Week Skills Accelerator — A virtual leadership training program built for law firm professionals.  Kicks off September 9.

Your Top Performers Were Promoted…But Were they Prepared?

Too often, we promote smart team members who are great at their jobs into leadership roles — and then leave them to figure it out.  

The result? Frustrated managers who feel like they’re failing, inefficiency, and turnover. Today’s legal professionals need more than a title — they need real leadership skills. 

You wouldn’t put someone in a courtroom without preparation. So why are we putting them in charge of people without the same support? 

Leadership isn’t intuitive. It’s a skillset. And most law firm professionals were never taught how to lead. 

Finally, the Training Law Firm Leaders Should’ve Gotten on Day One

Next-Level Leader: The 4-Week Skills Accelerator is a 4-week, high-impact experience designed specifically for the legal industry. 

Over four weeks, your emerging and current leaders will build the mindset, tools, and confidence to lead people—not just manage tasks. 

This isn’t a lecture series or a feel-good seminar. 

This is real training, with real practice, for real law firm challenges

You’ll get a system that helps your leaders: 

  • Set clear expectations 
  • Give feedback that drives performance 
  • Delegate without micromanaging 
  • Coach instead of control 
  • Lead meetings and teams with confidence 

You didn’t promote your best people so they could feel lost.

What Will Change?

Before    After 
“I don’t know how to give feedback without making it awkward.”  “I have a clear script and framework for giving honest, helpful feedback.” 
“No one seems to know what’s expected.”  “Everyone’s roles, priorities, and KPIs are clear and written down.” 
“I’m doing all the work myself because it’s faster than delegating.”  “My team is accountable, and I can focus on higher-level work.” 
“My calendar is full, and I’m not leading — I’m just surviving.”  “I have time each week for strategy, team development, and leadership.” 

"No matter how long you've been in leadership, you will take away great tips and tools to continue to grow in your journey."

— Rachel A., 2024 Participant, Emerging Leaders Summit

Why Now? Because Leadership is No Longer Optional 

Firms are growing. Teams are remote. Expectations are higher than ever.
Without confident, capable leaders—your firm hits a wall. 

This training is fast, focused, and built to fit into a busy schedule.
Just one live session a week. Real progress, no wasted time. 

What’s the Cost of Doing Nothing? 

One undertrained manager can cost your firm:

Breakdown Estimated Cost
  • Replacing one burned-out employee (in recruiting, onboarding, lost productivity)
$15,000–$25,000 
  • Partner time spent cleaning up mismanaged projects
$500/hour x 10 hrs = $5,000 
  • Reduced team productivity from unclear priorities
10% of a 5-person team’s billable time = $25,000/year 
  • One poor client experience that leads to lost business
$10,000+ in future work 

TOTAL COST FROM ONE BAD MANAGER EXPERIENCE: 

$50,000+ annually 

VS.

Next-Level Leader: The 4-Week Accelerator:

$750 for one person
$4,500 for your whole team
Free for Affinity Membership & Subscription Clients 

What’s the ROI of Leadership Training?

Poor leadership is expensive. It shows up as: 

✖ Missed deadlines 

✖ Client churn 

✖ Team drama and confusion 

✖ High turnover 

✖ Partners doing work they shouldn’t be doing 

The cost? Tens of thousands of dollars and hundreds of wasted hours—every single year.


Now imagine the opposite: 

✔️ Clear delegation that frees up senior attorneys 
✔️ Feedback that improves performance — not morale-killing blowups 
✔️ Team leads who hold others accountable so you don’t have to 
✔️ Employees who know what’s expected and how to succeed 

    Program Investment 

    This program pays for itself the moment one manager runs a better meeting, gives useful feedback, or finally stops micromanaging. 

    You’re not just buying training. 

    You’re buying back your time, your team’s effectiveness, and your sanity.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How is the training delivered?

    Each week includes short pre-work and a 2-hour live Zoom session. No fluff, all action.

    What if someone can’t attend a live session?

    We get it—law firm schedules are unpredictable. Every live session is recorded, and participants can catch up anytime.

    Do I need to be a lawyer?

    Nope. This is built for anyone in a leadership role in a law firm — legal, ops, tech, admin, or HR.

    Can we enroll more than 10 people?

    Yes! Contact us for custom pricing and facilitator support.

    Can you deliver this program just for our firm—in-person or virtually?

    Absolutely. We offer customized versions of this program for individual firms, delivered either virtually or onsite. You’ll get tailored content, private workshops for your team, and scheduling flexibility. Reach out and we’ll build the right format for your goals and budget.

    What support is available after the course?

    Participants can purchase 1:1 coaching calls for deeper support after the program.

    What’s the difference between this and a CLE or management seminar?

    This isn’t a passive training or box-checking CLE. It’s built for action. Participants practice, role-play, and leave with tools they’ll use right away.

    Can this help with performance issues or underperforming team leads?

    Yes. The training gives managers specific tools for setting expectations, giving feedback, and coaching performance—without micromanaging.

    What if we’ve already done DISC or leadership training before?

    Great! This program builds on those foundations and focuses on application—real-life use, not theory. We help leaders use tools they may already know but aren't yet applying well.

    Is this CLE-eligible or CLM-approved?

    We're exploring credits—reach out if this is important to your firm.

    Can I talk to someone about whether this is right for my team?

    Absolutely. We’re happy to discuss your goals and recommend the right format. [Contact us here →]
