GLS Offsite Legal Training Day Framework™
A planning solution for your next legal team offsite event
The Problem
You need to bring your team together at an offsite training event.
Related challenges include:
- you need to foster a stronger “team identity" in your legal department
- after years of Covid isolation your team is long overdue for an offsite
- your team is dispersed globally so building strong bonds is a challenge
- you need to organize an offsite day as part of your legal team development program
- offsite events can be boring and in many cases inconvenient to participate in
- you want your staff to know that the business is invested in their personal development
- you have limited budget for the offsite event so you want to achieve maximum ROI with it
- you will likely have to arrange a virtual offsite event
- preparing DIY offsite training materials is extremely time intensive
- you need team bonding initiatives as much as you need skills development modules
- you want a day that will both upskill your team, and bring them together to be a more effective “team”
Wouldn’t it be great if there was a ready made training-day solution that you could customize to your legal department's specific needs and interests?
The GLS Solution
A good legal team knows each other - they work together and they train together. In recent years - most teams have been working in isolation and collegiate interaction has been far more limited than usual.
GLS Offsite Legal Training Day Framework™ helps you build the perfect agenda for your next offsite training day whether you are lucky enough to do it in person or whether you intend to conduct it virtually.
GLS can help you produce events from ½ a day through to 2 full days - for both in-person and/or remote based events.
Every offsite session is designed around GLS's 4 pillars of success: each event must be relevant, engaging, memorable and unifying - from start to finish, with no exceptions.
We can help you craft an offsite event designed to make your team a more familiar cohesive unit whilst acquiring important job related skills. We can help you develop a curated offsite agenda with session modules that can include:
- organization updates (your essential in-house updates)
- essential in-house skills
- team bonding activities that are fun
- guest industry speakers
- legal technology demonstrations
- business related problem solving
- how your legal team can create value
- how to achieve better team work and knowledge leverage
- custom case study scenarios
- spotlight on “new law” legal skills
- legal dept transformation themes
- career planning & development
- internal client management
- customized break out sessions
- industry benchmarking exposures
- workplace focus sessions / opinion polls
- knowhow creation session
We can help you establish an agenda that is right for you based on our extensive online questionnaire that will help you tease out what your offsite priorities should be for your team.
From the initial “event scoping” diagnostic, we are able to create an event agenda specific to your development needs, your budget and your desired event duration.
Once you have your event agenda settled, you have the opportunity to select any combination of GLS Legal Operations Centre resources to help you complete an entirely curated agenda.
GLS can also provide as much or as little of the content needed to make your event a success. Review the Deliverable options below to see what modules GLS can contribute to your offsite day.
So, if it is time to focus on bringing your team together to achieve a more cohesive unit that is better placed to take charge of the future of your legal team - GLS Offsite Legal Training Day Framework™ is the perfect solution to go from “talk” to “action”.
