My focus is on providing clear, actionable guidance that enhances organisational effectiveness and supports long-term success.
I am experienced at translating legal and strategic requirements into workable processes, streamlined systems, and meaningful cultural shifts. I help organisations and individuals navigate complexity with clarity, confidence, and a focus on practical outcomes.
My approach blends analytical rigor with a genuinely collaborative style, ensuring that leaders and teams feel supported, empowered, and equipped to achieve sustainable results.
I build strong relationships at every level of an organisation and lead with a calm and personable manner- whether I am providing legal education, facilitating complex transformation programs, improving operational performance, or providing strategic organisational advice.

Anne-Marie Rice
I aim to inspire teams to see possibilities, embrace new ways of working, and deliver meaningful improvements in all areas of the justice system.
I am a nationally recognised legal problem solver, with a track record in designing and delivering major dispute resolution reforms within court environments. I’m passionate about helping practitioners and courts think differently about conflict resolution and the practice of law.
I combine legal expertise with a collaborative, people-focused approach; working with teams to develop innovative, evidence-based models that improve efficiency, enhance user experience, and encourage earlier, more constructive pathways to resolution. My experience in judicial decision making gives me a practical understanding of how litigation processes work and how they can be improved to better support parties, practitioners and the broader system.
I am known for my calm leadership style and engaging training and presentations. I enjoy bringing people together, building capability, and creating the conditions for positive organisational change.
