On the\u00a09<\/span>th<\/span><\/span>\u00a0May, a hugely talented\u00a0selection\u00a0of 20 of the most well-respected, dynamic and\u00a0innovative\u00a0general counsel in Singapore assembled at Ashurst\u2019s beautiful Marina Bay offices to discuss\u00a0all things crisis management \u2013\u00a0perhaps THE\u00a0key topic for high level corporate counsel \u2013 with The Legal 500 and three of Ashurst\u2019s most distinguished\u00a0names in Singapore: partners Rob Palmer and Michael Weatherley and counsel Sylvia Tee.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

With the\u00a0Singapore Strait\u00a0and its vast array of cargo ships\u00a0providing a breataking backdrop,\u00a0the conversation got underway with Sylvia Tee of Ashurst chairing the discussion\u00a0and asking those in attendance: \u2018how prepared are you really?\u2019<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Key themes from the discussion included the challenges of assembling a\u00a0crisis management team (elementary on paper but potentially problematic in real-world situations), the need to rehearse for predictable crises such as dawn\u00a0raids\u00a0and any sector-specific scenarios\u00a0unique to your company\u00a0and the perennial difficulty of\u00a0actually diagnosing\u00a0a crisis\u00a0in order to\u00a0take the necessary steps.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Throughout, robust discussion came both from the GCs in the room\u00a0and Ashurst\u2019s representatives, with many commenting in the following drinks\u00a0and networking session\u00a0on the strength and practicality of the discussion.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":97100,"template":"","class_list":["post-97068","event_report","type-event_report","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/my.legal500.com\/events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_report\/97068","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/my.legal500.com\/events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_report"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/my.legal500.com\/events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event_report"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/my.legal500.com\/events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_report\/97068\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":150572,"href":"https:\/\/my.legal500.com\/events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_report\/97068\/revisions\/150572"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/my.legal500.com\/events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/97100"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/my.legal500.com\/events\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=97068"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
