CLOC is a movement that is leading the legal industry through rapid and accelerating change. This presents us with more opportunities and challenges than ever before. This kind of disruption requires leaders who can not only adapt to change, but who can steer and shape things to create a future with better outcomes for all. Join us as we talk with senior executives from influential organizations who are creating the future rather than simply reacting to it. These leaders, who approach change in different ways, understand we have a rare opportunity to design a new future and will share their bold thoughts on where we need to go and how we get there.
