About

Joining 3M Thailand as general counsel in 2016, with responsibility for six emerging markets in the region as well as Thailand, Wiyada Srinaganand expanded her role in 2017 with her appointment to the women’s leadership chair of the company and in 2018 with her assignment in an extended regulatory affairs role. She mentions the three main innovations she has brought forward during her time in charge of the 3M Thailand legal team as a ‘web-based end-to-end contract management system, the development of a legal playbook for doing business in emerging markets outlining the company’s internal procedures against bribery and corruption, anti-trust, tax and foreign investment laws and a web-based regulated product platform that creates awareness of business colleagues on special legal requirements of regulated products and enables them to search products against their registration and licenses’. She expands on why enacting excellent internal processes and best practices are at the core of her legal philosophy: ‘In-house lawyers are more than just lawyers but also legal leaders. With this in mind, I think of the organisation as my client and so work to simplify things and connect the dots through cross-functional collaboration utilising technology to achieve the organisation’s ultimate goals without just focusing on each function’s KPIs’.
