George was an associate at Ropes & Gray for five years before going in-house at Atlas, where he has been for 13 years. George talks about the experience of taking the company private in 2023 and the differences between being a lawyer at a public company versus a private one. In thinking about the role of a corporate generalist, he explains the “quarterbacking” skill that is essential to his job. George also shares a valuable (and easy) thing outside counsel can do to cultivate closer relationships with their in-house colleagues. ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/DS1he6FunAQCnt90FwTadKnyv4NiOXhF15OqBRcO3tM/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9hMGVj/ZTQ2MjkwNmNhOTY0/ZWIyZjcyYjY2YWQ5/MTA0Ni5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
