Reviews
An impactful, courteous observation on the role of General Counsel. It felt to me like the sensible person in a debate, speaking with integrity and clarity, but neither partisan nor dismissive of a range of opinions. It is well written, accessible, reflective and valuable. -- Paul Gilbert
I wish this had been out years ago! A practical, pragmatic manual for all stages of an in-house legal career. Full of useful hints and tips, written in an easy, conversational style. Ian and Simon have created a companion guide which provides a great overview of the main duties of the role, useful also for those working with in-house lawyers. The well-thought out sections mean it can also be dipped into for helpful advice on tricky challenges. -- Nicola Raj
Thoughtful, practical and strategic. This book cannot be recommended too highly, particularly for those new to a GC role. -- Edward Persse
At last! GCs and the in-house community have waited too long for this book. This is a handy and highly practical guide on building and managing an in-house career. It is content rich, intelligently sequenced, well written and full of practical tips and suggestions. GCs "don't know what they don't know", but with this book by their side, GCs will be equipped to address many of the unknowns they face and resolve challenges they are confronting for the first time. Heading a legal function can be lonely and it is not always obvious were to turn for advice and guidance. Fortunately that need will, from now, be partially answered by Your Role as General Counsel as the real world emphasis of the book should help provide the necessary roadmap. In my view, this should be mandatory reading on Day 1 for all new GCs. -- David Brimacombe
