Legal at Business Speed: A 30-Day Sprint for General Counsel

General Counsel are under constant pressure to help the business move faster while still protecting the company from risk. But for many legal departments, speed is where the tension shows up most clearly. Sales needs contracts turned quickly. Product needs answers before launch. Finance wants predictability. Leadership wants Legal to be strategic, efficient, and measurable. Meanwhile, legal teams are managing intake, negotiations, approvals, and day-to-day demands with limited time and resources. Join us on Tuesday, June 23, 2026, at 12:00 PM ET / 9:00 AM PT as Akshay Verma, Chief Operating Officer at SpotDraft; Tanisha Minev, Global Legal Counsel at Docplanner; Sarah Gatti, Head of Legal at Zappi; and Michael Moore, VP, Head of Legal and Company Secretary at Glean, explore how legal leaders can identify bottlenecks, reduce friction, and build a faster, more business-aligned legal function. This 90-minute virtual session will introduce a practical 30-day sprint framework for improving intake, triaging work, accelerating high-volume tasks, and using metrics to show Legal’s impact in language the C-suite understands. Key Takeaways: Identify the real bottlenecks: Learn how to spot the workflows, handoffs, and approval points that are slowing Legal down most Run a practical 30-day sprint: Build a focused roadmap to audit, simplify, automate, and accelerate high-volume legal work without adding headcount Improve intake and triage: Create clearer pathways for requests, route work more effectively, and reserve legal time for higher-value judgment calls Use self-service safely: Give the business tools and guardrails to handle lower-risk work while keeping Legal involved where it matters most Measure and communicate velocity: Track contract cycle time, response times, throughput, and legal team impact in ways that resonate with executives Leave with an action plan: Identify one bottleneck to eliminate and one manual process to improve within the next 30 days Who Should Attend:This program is designed for General Counsel, Deputy General Counsel, Heads of Legal, and Legal Operations leaders who are responsible for legal team performance, operational efficiency, contract velocity, stakeholder experience, and business partnership.
