TOPIC: Creating an impact and building your brand.
Building profile and impact is an important skill for all in house lawyers. Not only do they interact daily with internal clients within the business, many also have a role to play in raising the profile of their organisation in the marketplace.
In this workshop, our presenters will outline the steps that in house counsel can take to build their own profile and reputation inside their organisation and beyond. They will give tips and practical advice appropriate to the role of in house lawyers and demonstrate to attendees how to work on their impact and brand. The session will finish with practical suggestions for attendees to put any lessons learned into practice when they return to work.
