Over the last three years, FTI Technology and Relativity have charted the continually shifting and expanding role of general counsel through an annual survey-driven report. In this year’s study, The General Counsel Report 2022, the role of the GC is analyzed with the understanding that the widening risk landscape has permanently expanded the role, demanding endurance from today’s corporate legal leaders.

In this session, moderated by Ari Kaplan of Kaplan Associates and featuring experts from FTI Technology, Relativity, and Coursehero general counsel, key findings from the report are discussed, focusing on benchmarking and navigating a growing list of present and emerging risks. Focus areas of team management, culture development, and technology investment are also presented, highlighting key priorities for GCs heading into 2022. By attending this webcast, you will learn:

  • Year-over-year trends shaping the role and responsibilities of the GC
  • Emerging organizational risks resulting from remote work and evolving political landscape
  • Critical areas of focus for building strong teams and technology-driven legal departments
  • Advice for navigating 2022 and applying lessons learned from the report
