Episode 2: Building Your Profile and Visibility: Requirements for Agile Leadership

They know that their agility is defined by their ability to display their expertise, talents and wisdom outside the organizations where they work. This second session illustrates this point with a panel of legal department executives who will share their best practices for building profiles that can position legal professionals as thought leaders and open them up to other opportunities, such as serving on corporate boards.

As a result of the pandemic, we are in the age of âemployee disconnectednessâ â which makes it imperative for the agile leader to create a work environment where their team members feel connected to the organization and to their colleagues. The fourth session will focus on understanding the concept of belonging, and why it is critical to retaining talent. You will learn from a panel of legal department executives about the various roles they play to support their team members success during a time when it is easier than ever to feel alone and disconnected from one another at work.
