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

Introduction

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.

The session will conclude with project closure and lessons learned, making the in-house lawyer a value creator and trusted advisor.
