January Promises a Fresh Start. This Year, Build the Future.
Make an investment in the leadership that will shape what comes next.
The AI era of law is calling for a different kind of leader. Technical skills won’t be enough. Neither will legal expertise alone.
The leaders who will define the next decade—whether building legal tech ventures, leading organizational transformation or positioning themselves for what’s next are those who can navigate change, build strategic alignment, foster collaboration, and make decisions with incomplete information.
That takes more than knowledge. It takes infrastructure: trusted peers, executive coaching, and sustained development. It takes a circle.
This year, we’re resolved to help you build yours. 2026 cohorts now forming for our Executive Peer Advisory Group Coaching Circles for Women in Law and our Themis Mentoring Circles for Rising Leaders.
Executive Peer Advisory Group Coaching Circles for Women in Law
Lex 2X Exec Executive Peer Advisory Group Coaching Circles is a 10-month executive program for women in law —whether you’re a Chief Legal Officer navigating AI integration, a legal tech founder scaling your vision, or a legal aid or public sector leader driving change.
Our C-Suite Circles bring together small groups of 6-8 high-level women legal peers facing similar leadership, entrepreneurship, or career goals and challenges. Each circle is facilitated by a vetted, credentialed executive coach who understands executive leadership growth and leading transformative change.
What Makes Our Executive Peer Advisory Group Coaching Different?
Built for the AI Era of Law
Unlike sector-agnostic executive peer advisory groups, our C-Suite Circles are specifically designed for women navigating the AI transformation of law. Whether you’re:
- Launching or scaling a legal tech company as a founder or CEO
- Leading AI governance and transformation initiatives in a private or public sector organization
- Driving legal innovation as a Chief Innovation Officer, Legal Operations leader, or practice innovator
- Building justice tech solutions to increase access to justice
- Transitioning into legal tech leadership from a traditional legal role
- Exploring how to thrive in the AI era of law—from new possibilities to your professional identity in the new era
You will find peers who truly understand your challenges, opportunities, and aspirations.
Structured and Expert-Facilitated, Not Just Networking
While executive peer advisory group coaching relies on the collective wisdom of members, our circles are facilitated by curated, credentialed executive coaches who bring structure and proven frameworks to every session. Circles establish SMART goals for their work.
