Join ACC St. Louis on Thursday, July 24th for the VIRTUAL program Workplace Strategy Essentials for In-House Counsel: How to Become the Business's Favorite Legal Resource.

In 2025, in-house counsel can no longer be seen as the “department of no.” But transforming into a solution-driven, strategic partner within the business is easier said than done. How can you adopt the right mindset and processes to become an invaluable resource for your business colleagues?

Tune in for an insightful session with David Sclar, seasoned in-house counsel and author of Workplace Strategies for Technology Lawyers.

• Integrating AI with Human-Centered Solutions: While AI is part of the modern toolkit, the focus will be on human-centered solutions to meet the unique challenges of in-house counsel.

David draws on his diverse background—from big law firms and Fortune 50 companies to startups and international public companies—providing real-world examples and actionable advice.
