About Our Guest:
Zoee Bradley is an in-house lawyer working in one of the most heavily regulated industries there is, and she describes herself as a teacher who happens to be a lawyer. We have known each other for ten years. This conversation covers her path into in-house without the law firm pipeline, the leadership lessons she learned at her grandmother’s dinner table and what it actually takes to build a legal function that is ready for technology.
Zoee walks through the admin role that led a GC to create a position for her, the Compliance Cup she built to turn training into something people looked forward to, and how she adapts her approach when working across cultures. We also get into the hesitation many senior GCs feel about investing in legal tech, why process maps and playbooks matter more than the shiny tools and why change management has to be carried all the way to the end.
You will leave with a clear case for building your foundations before your tech stack, and a reminder that everything is figure outable.
