Description
Deborah Solmor worked as a litigator at Skadden Arps and later as deputy general counsel and chief compliance officer of a public company. Despite these 20+ years of legal experience, the General Counsel role was "like nothing I had done in my career." Finding few resources for women lawyers new in their GC role, Deborah took the unlikely step of building an educational program tailor-made for women GCs and created "Ready Set GC." Ready Set GC is dedicated to supporting women in their early careers as General Counsel. They provide support, professional development, and a community to help these women reach their full potential. They do this through programs and community-building opportunities in cities across the country. Tune in to learn more about how Deborah and Ready Set GC are helping the next generation of legal leaders.
