A longer term strategy

If you’re serious about using the law as a force within your business, then you’re going to need to commit to a longer term strategy. Dealing with legal issues as and when they come up has you playing defense. You need to get ahead of the curve.

The key things you need to get right, include:

  • The terms on which you deal with your customers;
  • How you buy things from your key suppliers;
  • The manner in which you engage and manage your team;
  • The identification, protection and exploitation of your intellectual property;
  • The pro-active management of your real estate interests, including leases and owned property;
  • How you comply with the ever-changing regulations of your industry; and
  • The structure through which you protect the value you’re building within your business.
