  • The unique time pressures GC face (1:57

When general counsel get better at guarding their time for work only they can do, they become business leaders who make a bigger strategic impact on their company. In this episode, host Eliza Krigman and guest Drew Tanenbaum, an advisor in Gartner’s legal and compliance practice, discuss results of our study on GC time management. One jarring revelation: Only 53% of GC time goes to the work they should be doing.1

If you’re coping with emerging boardroom issues, heightened stakeholder expectations and new regulatory regimes by working longer hours or taking your laptop to the beach, this episode will show you how to rebalance your day toward the big things and away from the meetings or tasks that might require a lawyer … but not the GC.
