Description

“I don’t have all the right answers, and nor should I, but I have to ask the right questions, hire the right people, and create the clarity to allow them to do their jobs.”

We’re joined by Emily Pritchard, CEO of Acis Group, a legal tech platform providing structuring and compliance services to thousands of accounting and legal firms across Australia.

Emily’s career spanned commercial law and global finance before stepping into her leadership journey at Acis. She’s navigated the succession of a 35-year-old founder-led business, scaled growth, and reimagined culture, while fiercely protecting Acis’ reputation for client care and innovation.

In this episode, Emily shares:
 • Lessons from moving from Chief Legal Officer → COO → CEO
 • Building a culture that balances strict compliance with fast growth
 • Earning trust in a cautious, detail-oriented B2B market
 • Growing sales and marketing function without losing quality
