The Leadership Development Team (LDT) is committed to harnessing the experience and ability of Law Society leaders around the world to help us grow and better serve our communities. If you’d like the LDT to provide training to your chapter leaders, or if you’re willing to share your own experiences and insights with other chapters, please complete this short survey.
To assist chapter leaders in being successful in their new roles, the LDT has prepared the following modules that we invite each new leader to complete. Beginning in 2019, a one-hour review of these materials by chapter leadership became a requirement to receive the Quality or Outstanding Chapter Award.

Area Chairs are encouraged to hold Area Conferences to help accomplish the mission of the Law Society by fostering social connection among our members and collaboration with other organizations and good people of faith. Area Chairs are encouraged to hold an Area Conference every two years, or annually as circumstances permit. Area Conferences can be held for Law Society members and guests within a single area, or can be co-hosted with other areas.
For information about how to plan an Area Conference, Area Chairs are invited to use the JRCLS Area Conference Planning Guide.
