About the Event

The past 12 months has have transformed how legal departments operate and deliver services.

Legal leaders must today grapple with increasingly complex social, environmental, business, and legal challenges whilst remaining a highly effective and efficient legal department in a distributed and disrupted post-pandemic world.

A new and untested working environment raises both operational and legal challenges, whilst highlighting the need to adapt management, learning and development strategies to energize, engage and retain staff and cultivate the next generation of legal talent.

Ever changing regulations and an increased focus on ESG highlights the importance of legal teams not just as a reactive force but as a proactive stakeholder in evaluating risks and opportunity, developing operational policies, and shaping go-to-market strategy.

This new and expanded role is being made possible as technological innovation promises to automate high volume, low value tasks; freeing up time to focus on higher value, more strategic work. But adoption remains slow, in an often tech averse industry.

Reuters Events: Legal Leaders will equip you with what you need to operate as a successful, efficient, and trusted strategic business adviser in this new and exciting paradigm. The program will cover the five core areas driving or undergoing change across the legal profession:

Leadership and Strategy
Resourcing and Talent
Regulation
ESG and Diversity
Transformation
