Views from the Top: The Complexities of Managing a Modern Legal Department

August 20, 2020

O’Melveny’s Asian South-Asian Islander Society (OASIS) will host an engaging discussion featuring five general counsel from leading public and privately held companies. Moderated by O’Melveny partners Jeeho Lee and Scott Sugino, the panel will discuss the legal and non-legal skills general counsel need in order to influence senior colleagues within their organizations and how Asian American attorneys can develop and project these capabilities. The panelists will also discuss some of the unique challenges in managing corporate legal departments as Asian American senior executives, including overseeing diversity and inclusion initiatives at their respective companies in the wake of the killing of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter movement.
