ALB will identify China’s leading general counsel in its inaugural Top General Counsel Rankings 2015, which will be published in June. The submissions are open to all general counsel based in China. The research is three-pronged: it will involve a self-nomination process for general counsel, a survey requesting feedback on their in-house counterparts, as well as editorial input. The deadline for submission has been extended to Wednesday, May 20.
Methodology:
The research will be conducted through the following aspects:
1. Self-nomination forms for general counsel. In-house teams or the general counsel can fill out the submission form (document download link below) and hand it in to Shangjing Li at Shangjing.li@thomsonreuters.com Nominations will be vetted by the ALB editorial team.
2. Private practice lawyers in China are invited to fill out a survey in which they can recommend general counsel for the ranking. Responses will be kept anonymous.
3. We will also take into account peer commentary, market feedback and ALB editorial input. Interviews will be conducted by ALB if necessary.
Some of the key qualities we are looking for are:
1. Scope and significance of work handled by the general counsel
2. Any significant initiatives launched by the general counsel in his/her current role
3. Years of experience and previous work history
4. Awards and accolades
5. Other relevant information (including, but not limited to, pro-bono work, charity work, social service, etc.)
GC’s self nomination form can be downloaded here. Private lawyers please fill out the survey here.
