Bring Your General Counsel to Work Day

Risk, reputation and reality: working effectively with legal in a crisis

Crises are fast-paced, high-pressure and increasingly complex — and how communications and legal teams work together can make or break an organisation’s reputation.

Join IABC Western Australia, in collaboration with FTI Consulting and Lavan, for Bring Your General Counsel to Work Day — a practical, interactive masterclass exploring how communicators and lawyers can work more effectively together when it matters most.

Led by Cameron Morse, Senior Managing Director, and Mike Groves, Senior Director at FTI Consulting, this session draws on real-world crisis experience to unpack the key pressure points that often emerge between communications and legal teams. Through discussion and practical insights, attendees will explore how to align early, manage risk, protect reputation and make confident decisions under scrutiny.

Communications practitioners are strongly encouraged to attend — ideally alongside their organisation’s General Counsel — for a candid, thought-provoking discussion on where law and communications intersect in a crisis.

Designed for both seasoned professionals and those newer to crisis communications, this session will provide hands-on insights to strengthen crisis preparedness, response and collaboration across disciplines.

Thank you to our wonderful event partner FTI Consulting and incredible venue partner Lavan.
