Guide in-house teams innovating in a crisis
From The Lawyer
| Help in-house teams to stay innovative 21-23 October 2020 | #IHBP20 Plato may have said that necessity is the mother of invention, but in-house legal teams are the ones walking the walk at this time; embracing new working practices when business risk appetite is far higher than usual, and the normal barriers to innovation set aside in favour of a “just do it” approach. But, as we slowly head out of the current crisis and into a recession, it will be tempting to return to old ways of working. Input from external counsel is vital at this moment and the In-house Counsel as Business Partner virtual conference provides powerful content opportunities to engage over 400 potential in-house clients with your expertise.

| Topical discussions The In-house Counsel as Business Partner virtual conference looks at the challenges that General Counsel and their teams can expect in the near future and how to be prepared. We have two content sessions available for a commercial partner to come on board and lead the discussions within:[Webinar] Crisis-catalysed innovation; the divining of solution-orientated process Plato said that necessity is the mother of innovation and legal teams have demonstrated this. From operating and continuing organisational processes in a constrained environment, to teams thinking creatively about the interpretation and application of regulation in a much more purposeful way. We’ll be asking: How did COVID-19 innovate the way we work?How has decision-making in organisations changed?Have teams revised their own processes? Did they work?Confirmed speakers: Vanya Bromfield, General Counsel for BIS & VP for Legal Operations, Smiths Group Jenny Hacker, Head of Operations, Group-Legal & Company Secratarial, Royal London Interested in leading this webinar? Contact us today >> [Webinar] Dealing with a fluctuating risk appetite Risk appetite is dictated by the business through its strategy. Legal teams are expected to align themselves with this – which doesn’t always come naturally. How can in-house teams deal with a fluctuating risk appetite within the business, and fully understand the risk that they are taking on both as a team and as a business? We’ll be asking:How can in-house teams successfully flex their risk appetite?What measures and/or legal technologies can be deployed by legal teams to support managing risks?How do in-house lawyers go about giving practical legal advice when the appetite for risk from the business is higher than usual? What can teams learn from the risk appetite of start-ups?Confirmed speaker: James Sullivan, Head of Legal & Company Secretary (VP), Monzo Bank Interested in moderating this panel discussion?

A safe pair of [virtual] hands
When it became clear that face-to-face conferences simply weren’t going to be possible, we quickly pivoted to an online model of conference delivery for our first 2020 conference.
Whilst it was a new experience for almost everyone involved, we were delighted with the result and the positive feedback received from delegates and sponsors alike. Over 300 in-house lawyers participated and gave us a Net Promoter Score of +45 for their overall experience.
