NEW YORK, Sept. 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- ALM is pleased to announce that Judy Smith, founder and President of Smith & Company, a leading strategic advisory firm, has been added to its slate of renowned legal speakers for Legalweek 2022.

Ms. Smith's keynote session titled Leading Through Crisis: What Every Leader Should Know will be kicking off day two of Legalweek 2022 on February 2, at 8:30 AM.

"ALM is excited to welcome Judy Smith as part of this year's Legalweek 2022 keynote lineup. Her 25 years of experience in advising clients on public communications, working with the media, as well as her legal and political acumen on a wide array of issues and challenges are what make her an exemplary speaker for this year's program.  She's the perfect fit to a program that will address the changing legal landscape and new roles that legal leaders are taking on in a post-COVID world. Ms. Smith will join an impressive speaker lineup for the week-long event that will be packed with top legal professionals from the most groundbreaking corporate legal departments, law firms and legal technology enterprises" said Mark Fried, Chief Financial Officer and President, Events at ALM Media.
