In this episode of Lessons I Learned in Law Scott Brown speaks Martin Nolan. As General Counsel at Skyscanner, Martin is responsible for Skyscanner’s Legal and Public & Regulatory Affairs teams and also acts as Company Secretary to Skyscanner’s group companies. Prior to moving in-house, Martin spent ten years working as a corporate lawyer in private practice, specialising in corporate finance, M&A and Private Equity. Martin reveals some of the lessons he learned in law including: ·      Be your authentic self. Trying to be someone else at work will be exhausting! ·      Take your blinkers off. Your legal skills are extremely transferrable so don’t look exclusively at what you’re doing now to inform your next career choices.  ·      Fail fast, fail forward. If you don’t ever make mistakes, you’re playing it too safe! Martin is two years in to a mammoth home renovation project. Hear how that’s progressing!
