Charlotte Karila-Vaillant, La fonction juridique en entreprise
For a long time managers have been thinking they could do without the law, but it is clear now that with the increasing complexity of legal issues and risks, law is now regularly ranked second in their concerns. This paper discusses how companies have gradually built up their own legal function and how this function is structured to support business growth.
