In-House Legal Tip: Train Constantly

In-house counsel must rapidly develop a broader range of skills to thrive going forward.

The domains where skills are required include:

1. Legal Technical Skills
2. Organisation Specific Skills
3. In-House Essentials Skills
4. Legal Operations Skills 
5. Sector Knowledge Skills
6. Knowledge Acquisition Skills
7. Transformation Skills
8. Technology Skills
9. Business Acumen
10. Self-Ownership Skills

Obviously, mere knowledge of the law is just an entry point to being effective in an in-house role.

In absolute terms, there are a lot more areas where training is required. 

This broader skill set is needed if you are to be a strategic & business-enabling advisor. 

Being part of a team that is committed to constant training & development is the place to be.

The question you need to ask is: are you getting the training you need for your in-house career to thrive? 

If not, your first step must be to join the GLS Legal Operations Community.

We are committed to constant community training in the skills in-house teams need to succeed.
