The legal team has privileged access to the way the organisation works, and visibility of its strengths and weaknesses. You can have an immediate, substantive and lasting impact. And yet, the perception still arises that legal is a blocker – the ‘business prevention department’. Lawyers may be seen as risk averse, or as a challenge to the smooth running of operations.

The circumstances in which you may need to convey a negative message are many and varied. They may relate purely to legal advice, but in-house they will frequently involve your organisation’s internal and external position. https://buff.ly/4cMx1sO #legalleadership #communication #inhouselaw #generalcounsel
