Legal design for in-house legal
If you've come across Electra Japanos on LinkedIn or through one of her many talks online - you've almost certainly heard her talk about "legal design". Applying design thinking effectively can lead to efficiency gains, costs reductions and better overall performance of your legal function. Today, Electra explores what is legal design, how you can practically implement it as in-house legal and why and how in-house teams should create a Target Operating Model.
Electra is a former in-house lawyer, founder of tlb and co-founder of oneNDA and Claustack. Having worked with legal contracts for 14 years, Electra understands they're broken. They take too long, cost too much and make salespeople angry. Electra also knows that the only way to fix them is to create consensus between the legal community so we can all agree to agree on the same standards. Innovation through collaboration is the only way forward - and this is exactly what Electra and the team at oneNDA are achieving.
