ACC NCR GC Roundtable: Leadership in Flux: Critical Traits for General Counsels in Rapidly Changing Times

During a protracted period of crisis management, drastic business disruption and a distributed workforce under unrelenting pressure, how are General Counsels pivoting and evolving to lead their teams and organizations?  More than ever, decisiveness, flexibility, empathy, and inclusivity are eclipsing traditional lawyerly traits of deliberateness, consistency, convention, and hierarchy in importance.  What are GCs doing to identify and develop these strengths in themselves and in their teams?  How do these changes affect GC relationships and expectations with your executives/boards, internal clients, and outside counsel? 

Join us for a conversation about these important questions with the following leading chief legal officers:

·  Elizabeth Allen, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary at NPR

·  Monica Douglas, SVP & General Counsel at The Coca-Cola Company

·  Lucy Fato, Executive Vice President, General Counsel & Global Head of Communications and Government Affairs at AIG

·  Michael Wu, Chief Legal Officer at Bath & Body Works

·  Simone Wu, Senior Vice President, General Counsel, Corporate Secretary & External Affairs at Choice Hotels International

Moderated by Audrey Jean, ACC NCR VP of Programming and SVP, Privacy Officer & Senior Associate GC at AARP
