In this episode, we’re joined by Sarah Derbyshire, General Counsel at Baringa. Sarah is a calm and collected, yet fiercely driven legal leader who’s built legal functions from scratch, helped pilot AI effectively, and co-founded a career-shaping network for in-house lawyers.

We dig deep into how Sarah was able to cut contract cycle time by 40% in her first year at Baringa, the approach she uses to turn resistance into applause, and the key to implementing change without causing chaos.
This is for anyone working within a legal department who wants to have more of an impact and keep up, without burning out.
