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.
This year’s program is organized around four subject areas that reflect the most pressing challenges and opportunities in legal operations.
Share practical approaches to using AI, agents, and automation in legal operations. We’re looking for real workflows, implementation lessons, prompting, adoption, oversight, and examples that show where technology creates value and where human judgment remains essential.
Explore how legal ops can contribute beyond execution and play a more strategic role in the business. We’re looking for real-world examples that connect legal ops to business priorities, executive decision-making, operating models, budgets, M&A, pricing, and measurable value.
Share practical approaches for navigating the uncertainty and complexity that come with changing technology, leadership, budgets, organizational structures, and responsibilities. We’re looking for real experiences and useful strategies for keeping teams focused, influencing without authority, and working through change.
Explore the skills that help legal ops professionals communicate effectively, build trust, navigate challenging conversations, and grow their careers. We’re looking for practical approaches to executive communication, storytelling, influence, personal effectiveness, career development, and peer learning.
We offer two distinct opportunities to submit a proposal. 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.
We are inviting members of the legal ecosystem to submit session proposals for the program. 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.
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.
