Laura Cameron of Pinsent Masons on Law Firm Strategy and Leadership across 4 Continents

Описание: What happens when a 300-year-old law firm builds its future on client-led growth, global collaboration, and a culture that actually holds up across 29 offices?

Laura Cameron, Global Managing Partner of Pinsent Masons, shares how she won a contested election with a vision rooted in people, purpose, and progress. She explains why growth only works when clients lead the way, how culture becomes a selection tool, and why she tests every new hire for “chemistry” before skill. The conversation cuts through leadership theory to reveal what it really means to run a global firm, balancing expansion with consistency, and ambition with care.

Can a firm that old still move with agility? And how does a leader stay grounded while steering across continents and time zones? Laura answers both with candor, humor, and the kind of insight that makes longevity look anything but traditional.
