Legal teams are doing more than ever. Most are still running on systems built for less.   71% of in-house teams now see themselves as strategic partners to the business. Last year that was 21%. The role has shifted but the architecture hasn't kept up.   Our 2026 Global Survey Report is out today — 678 professionals, global, one clear finding: the gap isn't capability. It's connection.   The Integration Imperative: Optimising the legal engine for the future   Download now: https://lnkd.in/d66NhAYa

What if the answer to rising demand in legal teams isn’t efficiency but capability? Today at the Corporate Counsel Summit, Paul Cowling will challenge the long‑standing “do more with less” mindset in his session “Rethinking resourcing: How modern legal teams are rewriting the rules.” Drawing on real‑world experience, Paul will explore how leading in‑house teams are reframing constraints as opportunities, shifting from traditional support models to business‑aligned partnerships, and using legal operations to rethink resourcing around impact, not just headcount. Join us for practical insight into smarter scaling, stronger prioritisation and building legal capability fit for what’s next.

By 2037, many managing partners and CLOs will be Gen X. The newest lawyers will be Gen Z. This shift creates an opportunity to bring together different perspectives and experiences. Generation Z in the Legal Workplace looks at how Gen X leadership can respond, recognising changing expectations and inviting Gen Z to contribute to how legal workplaces continue to evolve. The question isn’t “Will they fit into our culture?” It’s “How can our culture continue to evolve?” Download the report: https://lnkd.in/d88xzYu7

The legal engine is evolving. In-house legal teams are stepping into a more strategic role, but the pressure hasn’t eased, and the operating model hasn’t kept pace. Work is moving faster. Value isn't scaling with it. Our 2026 Global Survey Report, The Integration Imperative: Optimising the legal engine for the future, explores where that disconnect is forming, and what it takes to turn progress into performance. Findings coming soon.

AI is pulling legal towards more speed, scale, and efficiency, while many organisations still rely on habits built for another era. Our report shows that Gen Z is uniquely placed to help build AI integrated legal workplaces. They arrive digitally fluent and open to new ways of working. Generation Z in the Legal Workplace explores how to give them the access, autonomy, and responsibility to shape that transition.
