On 18 July 2023, in the final episode of eight in the CLI’s Women Legal Business Founders and Leaders Series offered through our Legalpreneurs Lab, Women Legalpreneurs Special Interest Group, Terri Mottershead, Executive Director, Centre for Legal Innovation facilitated a discussion focussed on the journey from Managing Partner to Founder and what it takes to build legacy with three outstanding women founders and leaders from Australia:

• Kristen Podagiel, Co-Founder, UNIQ You
• Sarah Rey, Founding Partner, Justitia Lawyers and Consultants
• Allison Warburton, Co-Founder and Director, Lacuna Professional Solutions

Topics covered in this session included:

• Defining legacy – What is it? What does it mean to you? Is it ok not to focus on it, ever? Is it a solo or collaborative decision?
• Building a runway – What is a “runway”? How long is it? Why is it important?
• Is there an “ah ha” moment when it’s time to move on? What does it look like?
• How does the journey end, with a bang, a but, or a what’s next?
