Joe Andrew is the Global Chairman of the world’s largest law firm, Dentons, which employs more than 19,000 people across 193 offices in 75 countries. This gives Joe a unique, bird’s-eye view of how the coronavirus pandemic is affecting the worldwide legal community on a macro level, and it enables him to compare and contrast the situation in the US to what’s happening internationally.

In a wide-ranging and eye-opening conversation with Jack Newton, Joe discusses:

  • Why “people really aren’t going back to the office”
  • The dilemmas facing leaders at firms and legal organizations
  • How and why data, technology, and history should shape the way firms respond to this crisis
  • The challenges of inequality this pandemic presents
  • The importance of embracing change and adapting quickly
