Learning from the Big Four: An Insiders' Perspective

The Big Four. We all know who they are and their dominance on the market. What we don’t know is what these firms value, what they view as their advantages and disadvantages and how they operate – until now.

 During this engaging webinar, you’ll hear from two former KPMG insiders on their experiences working in a Big Four firm and how they believe Lex Mundi member firms can evolve.

Now serving as COOs at Lex Mundi firms, these members share their insights as well as discuss how we can challenge the status quo and think beyond the current paradigm. They dive into the critical questions of:

  • Are the Big Four really that scary and advanced?
  • What can we learn from the Big Four?
  • What advantages do Lex Mundi firms have?
  • How can we capitalize on these opportunities?
