Description

The Corporate Counsel Survival Guide William Eugene Kruse ISBN 9781634258869

Deciding to pursue an in-house counsel position can be daunting. In-house roles differ significantly from law firm work and can vary widely depending on the company and industry. In The Corporate Counsel Survivor Guide, William E. Kruse—Regulatory Compliance Officer and in-house legal counsel at Gallup—offers practical insights into the unique challenges of serving as in-house counsel and provides a solid foundation for anyone curious about life inside corporate legal departments.

Kruse’s advice is not only valuable—it’s also witty, engaging, and easy to follow. As he notes in the Preface, this book delivers “valuable advice for new in-house counsel that won’t bore anyone to death in the process.” Topics covered include:

  • Navigating your first hundred days in a new in-house role

  • Managing internal crises, recognizing early warning signs, and avoiding overreaction

  • Maximizing productivity and managing your time effectively

  • Identifying and avoiding potential land mines

  • Understanding the business of law within a business context

  • Collaborating across departments and persuading colleagues to act in their legal and business best interests

  • Surviving corporate challenges such as crises, organizational change, relocation, training, and mentoring
