Legal Operations for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Legal Operations for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through competition law and data protection under POPIA without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because contract value leaks quietly through weak administration rather than through litigation, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with intellectual property, board procedure and dispute resolution in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review intellectual property and say plainly whether it is working, measured against King IV
- Take ownership of board procedure rather than escalating it
- Make a decision about dispute resolution without waiting for a specialist
- Explain cross-border contracting to someone who does not do the work
