Hosted by Marcus Pullen
In this episode of Counsel Connect, Irene Kuo shares a candid and practical perspective on the realities of life as in-house counsel, from building trust and setting boundaries with stakeholders to navigating the isolation that can come with the role. She reflects on her journey to Perth, and her time at Fortescue, Rio Tinto and currently as a Director at Fluor Australia, alongside her leadership roles as the Immediate Past President of the Association of Corporate Counsel (WA Division) and an Advisory Board Member at UWA Law School.
In this conversation we explore the rapid evolution of legal technology and AI, accountability and human agency within organisations, advising strong-willed leaders, and what in-house counsel truly value from their external advisers.
The Counsel Connect Podcast is a dedicated resource for in-house counsel in Western Australia. Produced by Jackson McDonald and hosted by Marcus Pullen, Partner, the series explores the legal, policy and public interest issues shaping the work of corporate legal teams across the State.
