What is the QLS Future Leaders Committee?
The QLS Future Leaders Committee (FLC) was established to provide a dedicated platform for early-career and emerging legal professionals to actively participate in shaping the future of the legal profession in Queensland. Comprised of passionate and motivated young lawyers, the committee plays a vital role in advising the Queensland Law Society Council on matters relevant to future generations of legal practitioners.
The FLC focuses on a wide range of important topics, including career development, mentoring opportunities, mental health and wellbeing, diversity and inclusion within the profession, and the evolving role of technology in legal practice. The committee works collaboratively to identify challenges faced by young lawyers and propose practical solutions that promote a more sustainable, inclusive, and forward-thinking legal industry.
In addition to providing strategic advice, the Future Leaders Committee organises events, seminars, and networking opportunities aimed at fostering connections between early-career lawyers and established leaders in the profession. Through these initiatives, the committee encourages knowledge sharing, professional growth, and meaningful mentorship opportunities for Queensland’s future legal leaders.
