‍

Join our community event on March 24 from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM in our new office in Copenhagen where everything is new and exciting for us.

‍

But ‘the new and exciting’ will also be the theme for the event, as we line up community speakers who have faced exciting and inspiring career transitions in different ways – and will share learnings from their new role with you.

‍

Look forward to these topics and speakers:

• Understanding Career Transitions: Market, Organizational, and Mindset Drivers: Partner and executive recruiter Katrine Folkersen from Erevena sets the scene by delving into market, organizational and mindset drivers behind career transitions.
• The Evolution of the General Counsel: From Legal Counsel to Senior Leadership: Linda Mullan Muir was the first legal hire in a growing company. Her role evolved into GC and later into a seat on the Senior Leadership Team. She shares how the GC role changes as a company matures - and what it takes to move from legal expert to business leader.
• From AI Legal Tech to General Counsel: Laura Jeffords Greenberg has worked across Red Bull, Unity, Wordsmith (AI legal tech), and recently stepped into the General Counsel role at Worksome. She shares her experience of measuring success - both for yourself and the legal function.
• ‍From VP to CEO to VP (Do Titles Matter?): Openli's community founder, Stine, shifting from VP to entrepreneur and CEO with a successful exit to now being VP again.
• ‍Getting into the Mind of a Legal Recruiter: Tamilla Vahman from Korn Ferry - one of the world’s leading executive search firms - shares how you can stand out, build credibility, and position yourself for your next legal leadership move. Tamilla has a background as a lawyer and inhouse legal executive at both ISS and Novo Nordisk and today she's recruiting for top GC roles at Korn Ferry.
