Ann-Maree David – the executive director of The College of Law in Queensland – notes that employers are looking for young lawyers with business acumen and diverse skills in their legal toolbelt. As young lawyers face an ever-broadening array of legal career options, seeking out mentors and further developing one’s network are going to be critical.

The pair also talk about the benefits of reverse mentoring, why even senior professionals in law need mentors, and the value of having mentors from different backgrounds so as to learn from different perspectives.  

This episode was produced in anticipation of the upcoming and inaugural Careers Expo & Emerging Leaders Summit – register now for this three-day virtual conference here.
