Amy Hyman Baum of Robert Half Legal, Randi Lewis and Edina Beasley of MLA Global, and Nancy Palermo of Garrison and Sisson will join us for a panel discussion to be moderated by one of your board members.

As they have in the past, the group will discuss the current state of the legal market, both locally and nationally, interviewing trends (will all hiring be done by Zoom for the foreseeable future?), trends for continuing to be able to work remotely (i.e. you take a job in another state and do it remotely even after the pandemic), and how you can best position yourself for that next career move. 

Chris Batz, Legal Recruiter of The Lion Group, will be back to talk more about increasing your LinkedIn visibility.

Those of you who tuned in to our three part series in 2020 will remember that Chris coaches legal executives regularly on the principles and format that best showcase their experience and that achieve tangible results.

Digitalizing the Work World
Association of Corporate Counsel

The advent of the pandemic forced companies to adopt to a digital work world in a short amount of time. Companies had to implement business solutions and train their employees and customers on new software. While the pandemic has impacted how work is done for almost two years, the digital changes to business are here to stay. Further digitalization is on the horizon for most businesses if they want to remain competitive.
