This event was held under the theme “The interactions between the corporate counsel and the board of directors: Legal, operational and political considerations” (Les interactions entre le conseiller juridique et le conseil d’administration : aspects juridiques, opérationnels et politiques). This activity was the first of a series of six panels that will discuss issues of interest for corporate counsel, including the interactions with the board of directors, crisis management, internal inquiries, conflicts of interest and performance indicators.
