SUMMARY:A "distributed" legal function - how to manage a modern corporate
  legal service
DESCRIPTION:As more in-house lawyers demand remote or hybrid work environ
 ments\, how does the structure of the legal function change? Can law fir
 ms profit from the shift away from an expectation that a company's lawye
 rs will be located and interacting in fixed physical locations? Will the
  rise of the “fractional GC” and other types of non-traditional legal se
 rvice providers become more embedded in the legal services ecosystem?\n\
 nSome of the challenges that will be discussed include:\n\n\n	Preserving
  confidentiality\;\n	recruiting\, training\, and mentoring\;\n	are remot
 e lawyers more subject to burnout?\;\n	maintaining productivity without 
 intrusive measures\;\n	sustaining the culture of the company and the leg
 al department\;\n	are remote lawyers at risk of being phased out in favo
 ur of seconded law firm lawyers or other external resources?\;\n	how can
  law firms position themselves to provide the flexible\, dedicated legal
  resources companies need?\n\n
