GLS Group Legal Policies™
Essential legal dept. policy assets
The Problem
Not having a clearly defined group legal policies cultivates inefficiency.
Related challenges include:
- optimally efficient tasking of finite legal resources is difficult
- policies may actually exist but are not known organisation wide
- justification of legal budget remains difficult
- team KPIs cannot be readily defined
- external provider engagement remains inefficient
- new team hires enter an unclear operating construct
- intra-team task delegation occurs inefficiently
- memory based policy regimes are diluted when people depart
- organisation wide, policy based efficiencies are denied
Still, defining a comprehensive legal policy takes time you don't have...
