How do you approach managing legal aspects during periods of instability or crises, and how does your legal strategy align with the broader business strategy to ensure the organisation’s resilience?  

It is critical to assess the instability or crise to understand the key legal issues, the risks and potential liability in all relevant jurisdictions. For me it is important not to prioritise speed over a thorough and robust legal approach, but actions to restrict further fall-out or isolate an issue should be taken where possible.

How do you prioritise diversity and inclusion within your legal department, and what initiatives have you implemented to foster a more inclusive and equitable work environment?  

Creating an inclusive workplace culture has been high on the agenda of my company. In the context of my legal team, embracing diversity principles is not merely a moral imperative, but arguably a strategic necessity.
