Crisis Management -<br />
Anticipating the Future in a Global World<br />
~ If it’s a crisis, much better to make it “your” crisis ~<br />
An interactive program designed primarily<br />
for in-house counsel<br />
Comments from last year’s International Corporate Counsel College<br />
“Absolutely top-notch speakers who addressed the issues that corporate counsel are most concerned about.”<br />
“Excellent exchange between outside counsel and in-house--rare to have the opportunity<br />
and to have this be the focus of a conference.”
2012 International Corporate Counsel College<br />
The International Corporate Counsel College brings together in-house counsel<br />
and their law firm counterparts for two days of education and discussion on<br />
the latest legal issues affecting global companies. The event is modelled on the<br />
highly successful IADC Corporate Counsel College which is held each year in<br />
the United Sates. This distinctive meeting format creates an intimate environment,<br />
providing the opportunity for in-house counsel and their advisors to gain<br />
knowledge together and spend time with others who face similar issues. The<br />
IADC is pleased to invite you to the fifth annual International Corporate Counsel<br />
College in London on 11-12 October 2012.<br />
Who may attend?<br />
The event is designed primarily for in-house counsel of corporations. Outside<br />
counsel also are welcome, provided they come with one or more in-house counsel<br />
clients.<br />
The International Association of Defense Counsel<br />
(IADC) has been serving a distinguished membership<br />
of corporate and insurance defense lawyers<br />
since 1920.<br />
Its activities benefit the approximately 2,400 invitation-only,<br />
peer-reviewed members from around the<br />
world and their clients as well as the civil justice system<br />
and the legal profession. In addition, the IADC<br />
takes a leadership role in many areas of legal reform<br />
and professional development.<br />

An Ounce of Prevention<br />
No individual, corporation or environment is immune from crisis. However, the manner and timing in which a crisis is handled,<br />
documented and diffused, can have long-lasting effects on your organisation’s credibility, reputation, and continued viability. Join<br />
our panelists for a discussion on the legal, insurance, risk management, and public relations aspects of crisis control and containment<br />
through proper preparation and response. Case study examples will illustrate the proper handling of crisis situations. We will discuss<br />
preventive planning, communication and investigation strategies, and the consequences of poor or inadequate procedures.<br />

Regulatory Challenges and Expanding Extraterritorial Reach<br />
Regulators of the various jurisdictions in the EU, U.S., Australia, Canada, and elsewhere around the world are reaching more and more<br />

will the power be exercised? How does one anticipate such expansion and coordination? How does one manage the ever increasing<br />
coordination among regulators of different countries around the globe?<br />

manage them?<br />
