For more than 20 years, I've run the DEH Speaker Series (formerly under the names Flex-Time Lawyers and Law & Reorder). The DEH Speaker Series is a quarterly programming series where I interview and moderate conversations with New York Times best-selling authors, TED speakers and thought leaders. The quarterly events draw up to 1,000 participants from companies, law firms and non-profits worldwide. The program topics vary and generally fall into three categories: careers/workplaces, women/diversity and law. Here’s my 2 ½ Minute Sizzle Reel that includes video clips of the DEH Speaker Series to give you a sense of how they work.
We are excited to be expanding our DEH Speaker Series membership offerings to three types:
- Access to the Next 4 Consecutive Events by Livestream & by Unlimited Online Recorded Webcast for 1 Year
- Access to the Next 4 Consecutive Events by Livestream & by Unlimited Online Recorded Webcast for 1 Year PLUS Access to All 15 Former Archived Events by Unlimited Online Access for 1 Year
- Access to All 15 Former Archived Events by Unlimited Online Access for 1 Year
Due to COVID-19, the DEH Speaker Series is currently being offered exclusively online and membership options do not include in-person participation. When social distancing restrictions are removed and assuming it makes sense to return to in-person programming, we will resume in-person events at the same rate for existing members and continue to offer the events by webcast. With the new exclusive online offerings, all members will be able to access the livestream and recorded events individually from any location. Many organizations purchase corporate memberships to supplement company and firm internal professional development, women’s initiatives and/or diversity programming. With the future of travel, work-at-home parameters, conferences, meetings, and social gatherings still in limbo, access to meaningful programming and connection remains limited and the DEH Speaker Series can fill these gaps now more than ever. To learn more about the new Archived Access that we’re offering to access 15 of our former events, click here.
Here’s a corporate invoice and an individual invoice that outlines the new offerings and payment terms. Click here to purchase one of the membership offerings online. You can also pay by check as outlined in the invoices.
I’ve been fortunate to attract numerous thought leaders and New York Times best-selling authors including Anne-Marie Slaughter, Claire Shipman, Gretchen Rubin, Reshma Saujani, Sallie Krawcheck, Laurie Santos, Lisa Belkin and many more. I also regularly host prominent general counsel and law firm leaders. My events have been hosted by many distinguished New York City law firms including Allen & Overy; Chadbourne; Cleary; Clifford Chance; Cravath; Davis Polk; Debevoise; DLA Piper, Fried, Frank; Hogan Lovells; Kaye Scholer; Kirkland & Ellis; K&L Gates; Kramer Levin; McDermott; Milbank; Morgan, Lewis; Orrick; King & Spalding; Patterson; Paul, Weiss; Proskauer; Schulte; Shearman & Sterling; Sidley; Simpson; Skadden; Stroock; Sullivan & Cromwell; Wachtell; Weil; White & Case; and, Willkie.
A corporate membership to the DEH Speaker Series is an excellent resource for law firms with committees, lawyers or administrators who want to keep abreast of issues relating to careers, workplaces, women and law. Many organizations purchase corporate memberships to supplement internal professional development, women’s initiatives and/or diversity programming. With the new exclusive online offerings, all members will be able to access four consecutive livestream and recorded events individually from any location. In addition to purchasing membership to the next four consecutive events, you can also purchase access to 15 of our archived events. To join the DEH Speaker Series and select from a variety of corporate membership options, please download the corporate invoice. An individual membership to the DEH Speaker Series gives you access to four consecutive quarterly events by livestream and recording. In addition to purchasing membership to the next four consecutive events, you can also purchase access to 15 of our archived events. Individual memberships are non-transferable, meaning that only the individual who joins can use the membership and participate in the DEH Speaker Series. Law firm lawyers are encouraged to submit their membership invoices for reimbursement as law firms typically reimburse for membership as a business development and/or professional development expense. To join the DEH Speaker Series and select from a variety of individual membership options, please download the individual invoice. In addition to the four consecutive events and archived events, the DEH Speaker Series provides members with a distribution of topical articles, access to dynamic guest speakers, and information about legal industry trends. It also contributes to a cause that is effecting positive change for women in general and the legal profession.
NEXT DEH SPEAKER SERIES EVENT
Women Disrupting Legal in Disruptive Times
Tuesday, July 21, 2020
12:30 - 1:30 p.m. EDT
By Livestream Webcast and Recording
Co-Host: Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP and Affiliates

Women Disrupting Legal in Disruptive Times. We are indeed in volatile times and these times require powerful, decisive and disruptive leaders. At this event, a distinguished panel of women leaders will share how they have become influencers in the legal profession. Whether it’s a CEO of a tech-enabled NewLaw model, a leading M&A/Corporate partner from a cutting-edge large law firm, a CEO innovator driving diversity change, or a GC from a dynamic in-house legal department, these leaders are all change agents in their organizations and beyond. During this webcast, you will learn what gives these women the confidence and courage to lead big. With probing questions posed by workplace and women’s expert (and fellow disruptor) Debbie Epstein Henry, we’ll also uncover how these leaders have learned to take smart risks and make an impact in times of uncertainty. We hope you will join us for this thought provoking, interactive discussion that will explore developing the gravitas and communication skills to be bold and effective leaders in uncharted territory.
