From Lawyer to Business Leader Read more Read less This is a unique programme, developed exclusively for in-house lawyers. Using world class blended learning approaches, it will build your ability to lead at an executive level. You will learn how to use and immediately apply the strategic, financial, commercial and other tools, that an in-house lawyer needs to add the greatest value to their organisation. Intensive, demanding and highly rewarding, this programme has been developed specifically for those in-house lawyers who wish to build their strategic awareness, commercial acumen and leadership skills, so they are ready for that seat at the board. The programme was developed by Cranfield School of Management in consultation with LexisNexis and built upon original research on the in-house function.
