Overview (Program Summary)
Today’s corporate law department has four main areas of strategic focus: delivering effective legal advice, optimizing efficiency, protecting the business from risk, and enabling the broader business’ goals. However, most department metrics are limited to cost and time data. Until this changes, the legal department is stuck as a cost center rather than a strategic leader. This session will help bridge the gap between legal department goals and metrics that showcase the legal department as a source of competitive advantage. After an exploration of different metrics that demonstrate the value of the law department, attendees will walk through a case study of how to present these metrics to leadership, explaining what data was selected, how it was presented, and the story it is meant to tell.
