Womble Bond Dickinson Partner Laura Kees moderated a panel discussion titled “Leading Through ‘Permacrisis’…It’s In Your Head” for the International Trademark Association (INTA). The virtual event took place on April 19. 

During the panel, leaders discussed key strategies to optimize time, energy, impact and legacy during uncertain times.  Themes discussed included the four faces of legal leadership, how process and toolkit stay the same during “permacrisis” (as well as how they change); and moving up the loyalty ladder with clients. Participants also demonstrated ideas on promoting employee engagement as well as self-engagement during times of crisis.
