When an economic downturn looms, many corporations reflexively freeze hiring and cut budgets.

That’s when great leaders react nimbly by making strategic decisions to drive cost-efficiency and deliver returns on investment.

Join this “fireside chat” with two seasoned legal operations executives who have helped their departments stay on top of expanding demand for legal services as budgets have contracted. They will share ways to better leverage people, processes, data and technology in a story-telling format, sharing how they have restructured, shifted sourcing models, implemented new spend management protocols, and automated legal workflows while harvesting data to make the case for needed resources.

Featured speakers include Reese J. Arrowsmith, Vice President and Head of Legal Operations, Campbell Soup Company, and Mike Russell, Head of Global Legal Operations, Expedia Group.
