Using distributed ownership to scale your legal function
Introduction

These days, especially in the tech space, legal functions have to scale fast. But often, their headcount doesn’t grow at the rate of the business. So how can you keep pace, deliver sound legal outcomes and create real business value? One way for a legal team to focus on higher-value work is to embed and use “distributed ownership”. Letting go of control over conventional legal matters might seem a little scary; but in this episode, we're confident that you’ll be convinced that this approach can support your legal function. We’re joined by Marion Bergeret, the General Counsel at digital health insurance company, Alan. Marion shares with us how she and the team at Alan have scaled their legal function by focusing on the distributed ownership of legal.
