Too much work. Not enough hours. If you’re a GC or in-house leader drowning in NDAs, MSAs, or end-of-quarter bottlenecks, bringing on full-time help might not make sense.

In this clip, we dive into how to spot the sweet spot for hiring outside help—and what to look for in an ALP so you can focus on strategic work, not just surviving the daily grind.
