International Association of Defense Counsel<br />

International Corporate Counsel College<br />

11-12 October 2012 London, England<br />

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 />

coordination among regulators of different countries around the globe?<br />
