Are you or your team part of the 90% of in-house counsel dissatisfied with your current position? Legal departments are at a critical tipping point. In this eye-opening event we will outline alarming statistics and trends that are reshaping the legal landscape in 2024.
We'll dig into Axiom's second-annual in-house talent report, "View from Inside," which surveyed over 200 general counsel across various industries, shedding light on the challenges they face and the flight risks within their already-depleted teams. The report revealed a striking reality: over 80% of in-house lawyers feel their legal departments are under-resourced. It also found that traditional hiring practices are failing to meet their resourcing challenges, and younger legal professionals are increasingly becoming flight risks.
Join this webcast where our expert speakers will provide a comprehensive analysis of the survey findings and potential solutions to address the crisis. They will delve into the frustrations of an overwhelmed legal workforce and provide solutions to other critical issues affecting in-house counsel. The first 50 registrants who attend 75% of the webcast will receive a $10 Amazon® Gift Card!*
You will:
- Explore Axiom's survey findings and their anticipated impact on in-house counsel and legal leadership.
- Learn how to effectively address resourcing challenges in today's evolving legal landscape.
- Uncover strategies to retain junior and mid-level lawyers who are flight risks.
Speakers include:
- Zach Abramowitz, Founder & Legal Startup Investor, Killer Whale Strategies
- Rick Hoel, International Commercial and Privacy Attorney, Axiom
- Andrew Stephens, General Counsel, MongoDB
