SUMMARY:LPD Showcase: the role of the general counsel in a fast-moving wo
 rld – how to deal with complexities\, challenges and change
DESCRIPTION:We live in a period of extraordinary and unprecedented comple
 xity and change. The global landscape is unstable: fundamental economic 
 changes\; the impact of technological change on individuals\; companies 
 and societies\; the existential threat of climate change\; crumbling tru
 st of civil societies in authorities\, institutions and business\; growi
 ng inequality\; an apparent weakening of concepts of globalisation and m
 ultilateralism in favour of protectionism and nationalism\; the new gene
 rations’ expectations for a better and fairer society – the list is long
  and the challenges are monumental.\n\nThe fast-changing environment and
  the challenges and complexities impacting the way we work and live have
  a deep impact on the corporate agenda\; and the responsibilities and ta
 sks of general counsels (GCs). In addition of having become an integrate
 d part of the business\, the GCs' tasks are increasingly shifting to mor
 e external relations\, sustainability and environmental protection\, cha
 nging risk patterns and meeting the expectations of the next generations
 . This\, together with technological change\, also reframes the relation
 ship with external counsel and on the approach of GCs towards new delive
 ry models of external legal support for the in-house legal department.\n
 \nThe Showcase of the Corporate Counsel Forum examines the effect of the
 se changes on GCs and external counsel\, and on the skillset necessary f
 or the GCs of today and on the relationship between the in-house legal d
 epartment and external counsel.
