A program hosted by:

ACC Charlotte

Thank you to Parker Poe for sponsoring this event!

Join the ACC New to In-house Committee and Parker Poe at Lenny Boy taproom for an energizing and interactive event designed to help new and experienced in-house attorneys sharpen one of their most critical skills: effective communication. Whether you're negotiating a deal, responding to regulatory inquiries, or advising internal stakeholders, your ability to communicate clearly and read the room can be the difference between success and missed opportunity.

This event will highlight the essential role of non-verbal cues, emotional intelligence, and intentional messaging in building trust, resolving conflict, and influencing outcomes. Through engaging discussions and hands-on team challenges, you'll gain insights into how your communication style impacts negotiations and how to adapt it for even greater impact.

What to Expect:
    •    Quick Insights: Kick off with a brief, high-impact discussion on how body language, tone, and emotional awareness shape professional relationships and deal dynamics.
    •    Team Competitions:
    ◦    Compliance Charades – Can your team communicate complex legal concepts without saying a word? Test your non-verbal agility in this fast-paced game.
    ◦    Legal Jeopardy – Put your legal knowledge and quick-thinking communication skills to the test in this team trivia challenge. Strategy and clear collaboration are key!

This event isn’t just about playing games - it’s about building the foundation for more successful communication in your role as in-house counsel. You’ll leave with practical takeaways, new connections, and a reminder that clear communication and emotional intelligence are your most powerful negotiation tools.

Bring your competitive spirit, your sharpest instincts, and your teamwork game because at this event, how you communicate is how you win.
