EDITOR’S DESK
T
he dawning of a new year is often a time of reinvention and renewal — that is certainly the case at Today’s General Counsel. You will probably notice that this issue is bigger than usual. That’s because we are ramping up our editorial strategy with a focus on thought leadership and expert commentary from general counsel and legal leaders. Over the past few months, we’ve seen a significant uptick in the quality of submissions. We want to deliver as many of these insightful articles to you as we can. To that end, all of the articles in this issue have already appeared on our beautifully redesigned website under the Thought Leadership heading. We have also promoted these stories on our social media accounts on LinkedIn and X. Please follow those accounts to stay up to date on everything we are publishing. This cover story in this issue analyzes a pending Supreme Court ruling that could reshape the standard for whistleblower retaliation claims under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX). “Depending on how the Court rules, employers and HR departments should be ready to revamp their whistleblower policies, training programs, and internal investigation procedures,” explain authors Christopher Robertson and Owen Wolfe of Seyfarth Shaw LLP. This story performed exceptionally well on our site, indicating strong reader interest in this topic. Other stories gaining traction on our website include an article about how general counsel should navigate the Corporate Transparency Act and another about how in-house counsel should guide their boards on AI strategy and compliance. As we expand the range of our thought leadership content, our company is evolving in other ways as well. I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce you to another of our new initiatives, which caters to the law firm community and its unique interests and needs. Our new platform, Today’s Managing Partner, offers a weekly newsletter, website, and resource page. It delivers best practices, news, insights, and solutions to help attorneys and operations officers excel in their careers. In 2024, we will be expanding our offerings, including the launch of the Today’s Managing Partner Webinar Series in January. We hope you are as excited as we are about the future of Today’s General Counsel and Today’s Managing Partner. We welcome your feedback and suggestions and look forward to hearing from you. Wishing you a happy and prosperous 2024!
