What do #generalcounsel do? Loads!

"The modern general counsel helps to map out strategy, shape policy positions, define company values and culture, support business growth, and safeguard the company's reputation.

The role has also become increasingly public: general counsels often speak with the press, respond to investor and analyst questions, and make statements on corporate social media."

Hi, I love being a #lawyer!

i think and write about:
-improving processes in legal organizations
-why law firm culture sucks
-how to kill the billable hour but still compensate people fairly
-what #inhouse and #biglaw can do to get along better

right now I'm a #productcounsel for a #fintech product doing everything and anything that touches it.
