Careers and the Business of Law


May 23, 2025

Let’s get something straight: the job of General Counsel has left the building. Today’s GCs aren’t just legal advisors, they’re business architects, transformation leaders, and culture drivers. And if your legal team is still playing defense, you’re losing ground.

In this episode, Lisa Mather and Tim Fraser, two of the most forward-leaning legal execs in the game, pull back the curtain on how they’re redefining the GC role from the center of the business.

What you’ll walk away with:

  • Why Legal Ops is outgrowing its old box and becoming strategic leadership.
  • How the best GCs are operating at “120%” by speaking the language of margin, growth, and product.
  • The mindset shift from “risk management” to “value creation” and what that means for your next hire.


🎯 Bonus:

Both Lisa and Tim will be live at the SOLID AI Agentic BootCamp at Microsoft this August and onstage at SOLID New York in September. Want to meet the First 50? Be there. Register here!

This isn’t incremental change. It’s an entirely new operating model.

Hit play. Share with your team. And start thinking out loud, together.
