Ep. 49: Commanding the C-Suite Court of Collaboration
This week, we’re getting anonymously comfy with Nail-biting Natalie, who’s preparing for her first big step into the C-suite spotlight. Tom and Tommie bring on the dynamic duo of Connie Brenton and Jeff Franke from LegalOps.com to explore what it takes to lead with confidence and clarity. Connie dives into her passion for mentorship, education, and paving the way for in-house leaders to level up their careers, while Jeff discusses the evolving role of AI and how it’s reshaping legal ops. We’ll unpack how to build connections across all the major players—without losing your voice—and why resilience and adaptability are the real keys to thriving in today’s legal landscape.
