Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC National Capital Region

The remote work environments in which many in-house lawyers now find themselves present interesting challenges - and opportunities - for career advancement. Come hear from in-house attorneys who have achieved promotions and other forms of advancement while working remotely, along with managers and recruiters involved in advancement decisions and career development initiatives in their departments.


Attendees can expect to learn about specific actions and strategies employed by attorneys who have 'made their own luck' to advance despite the limitations caused by being remote. In addition, we will share insights about things in-house managers and law departments can do to foster career development and advancement within geographically dispersed teams.
