In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Fuller – who returns to the show – to discuss how and why he decided to retire, what he sees as being his biggest accomplishments as a leader in legal businesses, how he rose to the top of some of the biggest practices in the world, his reflections on Mallesons’ merger with King & Wood, and the changing nature of leadership in law.

Fuller also delves into his observations about KPMG’s growth, how he sees the legal services marketplace evolving in Australia, how other lawyers can ensure they are ready – personally and professionally – to transition to retirement, why he’s particularly interested in the future of remuneration and globalisation in legal services, and why he remains such a “huge believer in [the] dream” of lawyers as business enablers and servants.
