In-House Counsel Practice
THE CLIENT Management and technology consulting firm Industry Professional Services Headquarters Amsterdam, Netherlands The Challenge The long-standing general counsel was approaching retirement, and our client needed to not only identify a successor but also navigate the first leadership change for the legal team in 15 years. The timing of the GC announcing his retirement, however, coincided with the promotion of a new CEO, so the leadership team was eager to keep the GC on for a longer tenure. The GC felt strongly about the need for a new legal leader with an understanding of technology and legal operations. The first challenge our client faced was getting used to the idea of the GC leaving; the second was finding the right successor. The Solution Members of Major, Lindsey
