McCullough Robertson is committed to supporting the growth and development of legal professionals.

   As business priorities continue to be re-evaluated, the make-up of general counsel is evolving. At McCullough Robertson we recognise that tomorrow’s GC needs:

• To sustainably lead high performing teams
• To demonstrate efficiency of process and deliver more with less
• An open mind to adopting new technology
• A strong personal sense of justice, balancing ethical compliance and commercial drivers

 The Program

We have developed a 12 month program of professional coaching and upskilling, specifically tailored for in-house counsels, ensuring a level of competency and skill across four key topics:

Delivery

• Introductory coaching consultation (30 minutes)
• Quarterly training session with tools around the four key topics (2 hours per session)
• Additional coaching throughout the year on key topics, e.g presenting to the Board, preparing for Board meetings (4 hours throughout the year)
• Other soft skills training courses, e.g Mental Health First Aid, DiSC profiling (2 hours per session)

The time frames outlined above are indicative and can be modified on an individual basis.
