Oftentimes, the business perceives its corporate legal department as being reactive, slow to change and non-collaborative. In this session, we will share strategies for becoming a “best in class” law department via proven techniques such as collaborative teaming dynamics, behavioral one-to-one coaching, and pivotal culture change and diversity activities. We will explore case studies on how some of the most established law departments have used these techniques to re-invent themselves and drive positive change not only in their departments but also throughout the business. Finally, we will include an interesting and fun interactive activity where you can gauge where your department falls on the leadership and change-management continuum.
