Keynote: Professionalising the profession

3pm – 3.45pm MDT, 4 June 2026 ‐ 45 mins

Ballroom A | Haley Revel (Calibrate)

Many law and accounting firms were built for a different era - one with slower change, simpler markets, and more predictable client needs. Today’s environment demands a more agile, scalable structure.

Drawing on nearly two decades of experience advising firm leadership, Haley Revel will examine why so many firms are redesigning their operating models to support growth, enhance performance, and strengthen accountability. She will challenge long‑standing assumptions about support roles and highlight what modern leadership infrastructure looks like in firms truly built to scale.

This session offers a timely, practical conversation for firm leaders who want to understand not only where their firm stands today, but what it will take to compete and thrive in the years ahead.
