Thrilled to be joining our moderator (and, yes, childhood neighbor!) Mo Bunnell of Bunnell Idea Group (BIG) alongside fellow panelists K&L Gates’ Craig Budner, Freshfields’ Bryonie Palmer Byers, Axinn, Veltrop & Harkrider LLP’s Julie Chodos, and Boston Consulting Group (BCG)’s Erin Carlson for “Elevate Your Impact: Innovative Strategies To Help Your Lawyers Win The Work They Want” on Tuesday, April 21 at 1:30 pm central.

The best BD and marketing professionals don’t just support their lawyers—they transform how those lawyers win work. But creating that transformation requires fresh thinking and proven strategies you won’t find in the usual playbook.

In this high-energy session, four successful leaders will compete to share their most effective ideas—the strategies that have genuinely elevated their own impact. The best part? This will be FUN. The leaders will be sharing their ideas in a game-show style format where the winner will get a special price!

You’ll walk away energized with 10+ new strategies you can implement immediately.

When you’re advising your lawyers proactively—not just taking orders—you become indispensable. And that’s when you can write your own ticket.

Learning Outcomes:

Discover new business development strategies from leading law firms that expand what’s possible for your lawyers and your impact.

Select from the 10+ approaches shared that will best fit the lawyers you support and the growth challenges you’re solving for.

Implement battle-tested ideas immediately to transform your role from order-taker to indispensable growth partner.

P.S. What a night celebrating what makes each and every one of us unique! Proud to be one of INvolve People’s Outstanding 100 LGBTQ+ Executives internationally, but even prouder to have been in the room the evening of March 20 for the #InvolveGala2026 with ALL of the incredible leaders recognized for their work in advocacy, allyship, equity, and representation.

Thank you, Suki Sandhu and team, for your vision and heart and tireless work. You make this world better indeed! Love you!

“Did we mention there was singing??” Yours truly guests on stage’s “So Much To Say: A Legal Podcast for People”

In this episode, Megan K. Senese & Jennifer Ramsey of stage are joined by the incomparable Roy Sexton (me?!), Chief Marketing Officer at Vedder Price, former International President of the Legal Marketing Association – LMA International, and one of INvolve People’s Top 100 OUTstanding LGBTQ+ Executives: https://share.transistor.fm/s/de26f09f

In this warm, funny, and deeply insightful conversation, Roy opens up about how he’s learned to lead without losing himself, including why he no longer ties his self-worth to professional validation, what helped him climb out of burnout, and how he approaches every CMO role with humility and curiosity. He shares the unexpected path that led him into legal marketing (spoiler: it involves penny loafers, a theater degree, and a rocking chair), his take on building true connection through content, and the power of karaoke.

Thank you, Melanie Scroggins of Scroggins Creative, for your expert production and kindness.

Megan wrote in her post: “We sang (a lot), we laughed (a lot) but we didn’t cry! Roy Sexton was the first stage spotlight. He has been a big online supporter of our content, our message and our brand. We are big fans of him. It’s hard to express how special it was to have him as a guest on our podcast. We had so much fun listening to his stories and talking to the person behind the profile. Did we mention there was singing?? Thank you, thank you, thank you Roy Sexton. You did great. Listen to our latest episode with Roy. Change your location: Change your perspective.”
