The Corporate Counsel Show: Talent, tech, and other challenges in FY24
Law department leaders will face significant challenges in the new financial year, however, effective utilisation of one’s resources – from emerging platforms to team members’ capabilities – will help GCs be better placed to navigate such pressures.
On this episode of The Corporate Counsel Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Deloitte partner and general counsel Tala Bennett about her interest in the technology space, how she manages such a large law department and delegates accordingly, and why she sees talent and technology as being the headline challenges for in-house legal teams in the new financial year.
Ms Bennett also discusses how to find the right balance when managing the idiosyncratic needs and desires of one’s staff members, why privacy and security will remain such critical issues for law departments to grapple with, the ever-increasing need for good communication with stakeholders, effective triaging of priorities, facilitating an inclusive team approach, the need to embrace AI, and the opportunities for engagement with one’s leadership.
