The Forum on Law, Culture & Society, in partnership with Leadership Mindset, presents
Leadership, Love, and the Law:
A Conversation with Danny Meyer, Rocco Landesman, and Jordan Roth
January 11, 2016 / 12:00pm – 2:00pm
NYU School of Law, Greenberg Lounge
Lawyers are often tasked with leading individuals, businesses, and even governments, through challenging issues involving complex legal and ethical questions. But beyond taking charge and offering guidance, what makes someone a successful long-term leader? And why is it important that lawyers, and law students, hone these qualities as they step into the role of counseling people during some of the most difficult, or most triumphant, moments they may face?
Join us for a conversation with three industry leaders — Union Square Hospitality Group CEO Danny Meyer, long-time Broadway producer and former NEA chairman Rocco Landesman, and Jujamcyn Theaters President Jordan Roth — as they discuss key attributes that make an exceptional leader in any field.
Reception catered by Union Square Hospitality Group to follow.

At New York University School of Law, we produce lawyers who are at the center of the conversation. A legal education trains an individual to be judicious, precise, and persuasive. We immerse students in a culture of innovation, cultivating skills to make ethical decisions, solve problems, and negotiate effectively. But we’re committed to more than that. We are developing and fostering a new generation of leaders as part of our dedication to making our students’ legal education enriching and distinctive.
Developing a Leadership Mindset is a signature experience at NYU School of Law. It is our mission to inspire and develop a lifelong practice of ethical and inclusive leadership, an ethos that has long been a key part of our institutional culture. Recognizing the constant evolution of leadership, we provide promising students with the tools needed to succeed through intensive training and exposure to its many forms and facets.
The Leadership Mindset permeates the student experience; exposure to leadership concepts begins before students arrive on campus and continues through their involvement as graduates. The Law School’s multiple constituencies—incoming and current students, alumni, employers, faculty, the larger legal community, and the business world more broadly—can have confidence that an NYU legal education is at the vanguard of leadership training and practice.
