The CLOC Global Institute welcomes session proposals that reflect the depth, diversity, and evolving sophistication of the legal operations profession.
We invite contributors to share real-world experiences, innovative approaches, and actionable guidance that resonate across varied roles, industries, and levels of expertise. High-quality proposals will emphasize clarity, relevance, and inclusivity, offering attendees tools and perspectives they can apply immediately while also preparing them for what comes next.
Given the limited number of session slots available, we encourage well-considered proposals that reflect clear objectives, practical takeaways, and strong alignment with the needs of our community. Thoughtful submissions help us build a program that is both impactful and inclusive. Please review the toolkit to help you prepare a high-quality submission.
This year’s program themes are designed to surface practical insights and elevate strategic thinking.
Explore how legal operations teams are integrating AI into daily workflows, fostering responsible use, and navigating the evolving relationship between technology and legal service delivery. Topics include AI tool selection, real-world implementation case studies, and governance and risk management.
Learn how legal departments can optimize resources while maintaining high-quality service delivery. Discussions will cover the use of ALSPs, shared service centers, and technology to manage spend, improve operational efficiency, and align investments with strategic priorities.
Highlight the evolving career journeys within legal operations, emphasizing growth, mobility, and leadership development. Sessions will reflect on personal and professional transitions and the skills and experiences that shape long-term success.
Support the growth of both interpersonal and technical capabilities essential to legal operations. Topics include building financial acumen, executive communication, AI prompt engineering, and technical upskilling in tools like Excel, Python, VBA, and Power BI.
Consider how legal departments are evolving in response to shifting leadership expectations and emerging technologies. Explore new approaches to team structure, role definition, and strategic alignment as organizations prepare for the future.
We are excited to offer two distinct opportunities to submit a proposal for the event. You may choose to submit a new session proposal or express interest in leading one of our curated topics. Below is information on both submission options so you can decide which path best fits your expertise and goals.
This is your opportunity to bring forward the ideas, insights, and innovations that matter most to you and help shape a program that reflects the diversity and depth of our field.
Whether you are proposing a solo presentation, a panel discussion, or an interactive workshop, we welcome submissions that challenge assumptions, spark dialogue, and offer practical takeaways for professionals at every stage of their journey.
What we’re looking for:
We’ve curated a dynamic slate of session topics designed to spark insight, dialogue, and action across the legal operations community. Now we’re inviting you, our members and peers, to help shape and deliver these sessions by lending your voice, expertise, and facilitation style.
This is more than a speaking opportunity. Selected contributors will lead the development of the session, collaborating with our team to refine learning objectives, structure the flow, and ensure the content resonates with our audience.
