You may not physically feel it, but there’s a palpable shift happening in the world of corporate legal operations. The leaders of some of the biggest law departments in the U.S.—including some unlikely allies from the tech sector—are joining forces to solidify and implement legal operations standards in an effort to solve major challenges that run across the legal ecosystem. That shift is being led by the founders of an organization called CLOC (Corporate Legal Operations Consortium), which includes legal ops directors from among the Fortune 500—NetApp, Flextronics, Cisco, Google and Yahoo, to name but a few.

If you are new to the terminology “legal operations professional,” CLOC defines the role as someone who brings “the leadership, knowledge and experience necessary to drive peak in-house legal department performance.”
