Eva Argilés, president of ACC Europe and general counsel of Applus+, explains why today’s corporate lawyers must go “legal and beyond” by Michela Cannovale In a swiftly changing legal landscape, the position of general counsel comes with a distinct array of challenges and requirements. As we live in a time of escalating crises, where climate, economic and social downturns often overlap, organizations more and more need leaders – and legal leaders as well – who can recognize these new realities, understand their place within them, and know what actions to take to help. “That’s the main reason why an effective general counsel is no longer a pure advisor but a strategic business decision-maker too. An effective general counsel no longer only sticks to the law but to financial and societal values too. No longer is only a lawyer, but an activist too. An activist with the ability to understand and delve into the economic, political, and social aspects that shape the business environment of their organisation”. This is what Eva Argilés, general counsel of Applus+ since October 2013, where she orchestrates legal strategies spanning over 70 jurisdictions, facilitating the multinational’s global operations, and president of the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) in Europe since October 2022, said during this year’s ACC conference in Edinburgh.
