The Evolving General Counsel: From Legal Guardian to Catalyst

Wednesday, August 12, 2026 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

Promotional graphic for a webinar presented by UC Berkeley Law Executive Education titled "The Evolving General Counsel: From Legal Guardian to Catalyst" on August 12 at 10 a.m. PT, featuring speakers Seth Jaffe & Mark LeHocky, Instructors of GC University, alongside their headshot photos against a blue and mint-green background.

General counsels used to be reactive legal guardians focused on compliance and litigation. Today’s GCs are modern, proactive enterprise builders that help shape corporate strategy, digital transformation, and business development.

World-class GCs and lead instructors of GC University, Seth Jaffe and Mark LeHocky, will discuss the evolving role of the modern GC and how they balance risk management with active strategic partnership.

Register here for webinar.
