In the spring of 2023, Trowers & Hamlins was proud to bring together a group of experienced General Counsel (GC) and Senior Legal Counsel from a range of industry sectors across the Midlands as part of our GC roundtable event series.
The Midlands is home to a diverse group of GCs who play a vital role in guiding their organisations through legal and commercial challenges and we valued this opportunity to discuss the risks, opportunities and challenges facing senior in-house lawyers today.
In this report we share the insights and conversations from the roundtable to examine what the future might look like for legal departments, including:
- How GCs and in-house legal teams are delivering more with less
- How to engage with both internal and external stakeholders
- The role of in-house legal in managing ESG risks and opportunities
- What GCs and in-house legal teams are doing to embrace legal technology
We finish the report looking ahead to what skills the GC of tomorrow will need.
