The In-House Lawyer as Project Manager - Support When & Where it Matters

Introduction

This webinar will provide an introduction to project management as an in-house lawyer.

Centring on the need for in-house lawyers to gain trust, project management skills can help in-house lawyers to offer an authoritative yet commercially astute voice. Such skills include responsiveness, business-focus and user-friendliness as well as being legally knowledgeable.

It tackles how to map out a framework and manage key project deliverables for your organisation and then moves on to important project management factors for in-house lawyers such as governance, stakeholders and your part in change control, with a short section on communications tools and AI. The session will conclude with project closure and lessons learned, making the in-house lawyer a value creator and trusted advisor.
