Abstract

This essay examines the transformative impact of technological, market, and other pressures on the legal profession and the new roles these changes create for law and non-law graduates. It explores Richard Susskind's predictions regarding the evolution of the legal profession into hybrid roles that merge legal expertise with other disciplines. The essay argues that business schools have a competitive advantage in educating these new hybrid legal profiles due to their internationalization, interdisciplinarity, and strong connections with the business world. Evidence is provided for the existing demand for hybrid legal roles, such as compliance officers, contract managers, and legal project managers, among others. It concludes by emphasizing the need for business schools to develop appropriate strategies to shape the future of the hybrid legal market and provide the necessary education.
