This year, our Civil Fraud Conference is taking place at The View at Royal College of Surgeons on Tuesday 7 July.
The programme features topical and practical talks, from a number of Wilberforce Chambers’ fraud specialists, which practitioners across the industry will hopefully find useful and applicable.
Throughout the day, there will be several opportunities to network with fellow colleagues and our barristers, including after the conference, where Champagne, drinks and canapés will be served from 5.55pm on the terrace.
Guest speaker: John Amaechi OBE
John is a world-renowned organisational psychologist, bestselling author, and Professor of Leadership at the University of Exeter Business School. John’s session will focus on transformational leadership. He will discuss driving sustainable growth, organisational well-being, and inclusive and ethical leadership. The session will be highly relevant to lawyers of all seniorities, and we hope attendees will feel they have something to take away with them and reflect on.
