ACC-SoCal is sponsoring the Mini MBA for In-house Counsel Tuesday through Thursday, April 21 to 23, at 5700 Wilshire Blvd, Suite 675, Los Angeles.

With the collapse of financial institutions and upheaval in the global economy, the role of corporate in-house counsel has changed and requires an in-depth understanding of a business and its operations and the ability to make critical recommendations about substantial risk.Attendees will learn to better understand financial statements and financial tools to value all or part of a business and the impact of decisions on the strategic and marketing goals of a business. They will learn to effectively manage work relationships and develop methods for minimizing the risks of decision-making.
Participants are seasoned lawyers from a variety of backgrounds. They will work with a select group of master teachers who are both academics and professionals. Among the faculty are Jack McCarthy, DBA, a teacher and researcher who will discuss managing people and diagnosing work relationships and teach how to lead high-performance teams across functions and departments;Michael Smith, who holds a Ph.D. in accounting and will teach the basic concepts of financial accounting and how you identify red flags that signal financial difficulties or accounting problems; and Melvyn Menezes, a management educator and consultant who will examine how companies develop and implement a corporate strategy.
