Next Monday and Tuesday, the General Counsel Conference East will crank up at the Marriott Marquis in New York, offering today’s legal leaders insights on growth, innovation and excellence. Designed for general counsels, legal executives and industry professionals, GCC East is the premiere conference for opportunities in professional development, networking and continued education.

To get things started, Legal Speak had a chance to speak with some participants from an upcoming panel titled “Best Practices for Engaging and Serving the Board of Directors”.

John Meyer, the GC and chief privacy officer at Zeem Solutions and Tina Beamon, the chief legal officer and chief compliance officer at Epikast, offer their thoughts on the panel as well as what they expect from the event overall.
