Managing workflow in a highly dynamic environment and remaining highly responsive, reliable, communicative, and accountable to team leadership and other members of the GCO.
Building relationships and teaming seamlessly with other members of GCO and within the Legal Practice Groups to deliver exceptional service to clients of GCO.
Developing and delivering training on Technology & Managed Services Agreements, knowledge sharing, and best practice across the legal network and business, when requested or appropriate.
