Back by popular demand from RLLB ‘25, we will once again offer a special program led by Dr. Larry Richard, the lawyer-psychologist founder of LawyerBrain, LLC. Dr. Richard is widely considered the leading expert on the psychology of the legal profession, including the psychological dynamics of law departments.

On Tuesday, September 8th, he will be conducting a unique 3-hour workshop in which he’ll explain how an understanding of your own key personality traits can give you an edge in:

• Negotiating
• Getting other people to do stuff (including lawyers!)
• Identifying and leveraging your own strengths
• Influencing
• Understanding yourself and others better
• And connecting, collaborating and communicating with better results.

This is a hands-on workshop: prior to attending, all participants will be invited to complete the Caliper Profile, a widely used and highly scientific personality assessment tool that’s been used in the corporate world for over 60 years.

During the workshop, you’ll receive a confidential scoresheet showing your scores on all 21 personality traits measured by the Caliper. He’ll also be showing proprietary benchmark information so you can see how you compare with others.

Dr. Richard has used this assessment to test thousands of professionals in law departments, law firms, etc., including legal ops professionals, lawyers, and many leaders.

LegalOps.com has negotiated a special reduced fee for you to participate in this one-time workshop. Normally, Dr. Richard’s fee for this type of program is thousands of dollars, but participants in this workshop at RLLB ‘26 will only pay $995. Your fee covers the cost of the test plus participation in the workshop.

Enrollment is limited and time-sensitive.

You will need to complete your assessment well in advance of RLLB ‘26, so sign up now!

Cultivating Your Visible Credibility What makes someone appear trustworthy, confident, and composed? More often than not, it comes down to a small set of observable behaviors—subtle cues that shape how others perceive your credibility and confidence.

Based on Cara Hale-Alter critically acclaimed book The Credibility Code, this highly interactive workshop breaks those cues down into clear, repeatable skills. Through guided demonstrations, practical skill drills, and structured self-assessments, participants learn how to identify the behaviors that influence “visible credibility” and begin developing them immediately.

• Project gravitas, both in-person and in virtual settings
• Recognize and prevent the “tells” of nervousness and intimidation
• Strike a balance between authority and approachability
• Maintain composure under pressure
• Avoid unintentional habits that may undermine status or confidence

Enrollment includes one year of access to the SpeechSkills Credibility Essentials online program for continued self-directed practice and habit reinforcement.

SpeechSkills is an award-winning corporate training company, established in 2000, serving top-tier clients across the globe.

Elevate visibility, professional influence, leadership confidence, team excellence, and measurable career progression in this hand-on, highly-interactive coaching experience designed for women leaders in the legal ecosystem.

Over two and a half focused hours (including breakfast!), we will do live executive coaching & practical exercises to help you strengthen the inner and outer skills required to lead with clarity, confidence, and influence. You'll be actively coached - not passively taught.

• Strengthen your ability to lead amid complexity and ambiguity, including managing teams, influencing stakeholders, and staying grounded through rapid change.
• Learn the exact language to make bold requests, set appropriate boundaries, offer a differing opinion, and a advocate for your needs without polarizing.
• Identify and dismantle internal patterns that undermine leadership performance, including stress reactivity, self-doubt, over-functioning, and second-guessing.
• Translate insight into execution by leaving with a clear implementation plan - ensuring your key takeaways from RLLB are acted on, not forgotten.

ALSO - this intensive is intentionally designed to foster meaningful connection, not surface-level networking. Through guided collaboration, you'll build relationships with other women navigating similar leadership challenges, leaving with new allies and trusted peers long after the conference ends.

Led by Executive Coach Barb Wade, this is a rare opportunity to experience the depth, focus, and caliber of coaching typically reserved for senior leaders in private coaching engagements.
