Leading Intellectual Property Teams
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers company secretarial practice and contract interpretation from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because contract value leaks quietly through weak administration rather than through litigation, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with cross-border contracting, liability and indemnity and board procedure in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put cross-border contracting on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against POPIA
- Make a decision about liability and indemnity without waiting for a specialist
- Take ownership of board procedure rather than escalating it
- Spot where data protection under POPIA is failing before it becomes a finding
