Webinar: How to secure stakeholder buy-in for legal initiatives
Learn how legal teams can win stakeholder buy-in across the business and drive initiatives that truly stick, in our upcoming webinar in parternship with In-House Connect.
Virtual
May 27, 3pm EDT
Why join the webinar?
Join our upcoming webinar to learn how legal teams can build stronger stakeholder relationships, secure tech buy-in and drive successful cross-functional initiatives.
Legal teams are increasingly expected to lead projects that impact the whole business, but success often depends on more than just the solution itself. Whether you’re rolling out new processes, improving collaboration, or introducing technology like contract lifecycle management (CLM), alignment with stakeholders across the likes of sales, finance, and beyond is critical!
In this session, you’ll hear not only from legal, but sales and finance stakeholders too to learn what really matters to them! As all three departments share their perspectives on the best ways to partner with legal, you’ll gain a clearer picture of how legal can build trust, influence outcomes, and create lasting engagement across the whole business.
Key talking points and takeaways:
- Understand the best ways legal can approach collaboration with sales and finance - and what they need from each other to succeed
- Learn practical strategies to secure stakeholder buy-in for legal-led initiatives (including CLM and other tech projects)
- Discover how to position legal’s ideas in a way that resonates with different business functions
- Explore how to involve stakeholders effectively at every stage - from early discussions through to rollout and adoption
In partnership with In-House Connect, our webinar will provide legal teams with the winning formula for securing cross-functional support, effective relationships and the tips to influence your decisions.

Interview: How we’re reimagining contract workflows in Word
When we talk about improving contract workflows, it’s easy to jump straight to AI, automation and the next big leap forward. But sometimes, the biggest impact comes from fixing the most frustrating part of the day-to-day.
For our latest product release, our Microsoft Word Add-In 2.0, we sat down with Summize’s Product Owner Leanne Hayes and Senior Customer Success Manager Eden Cunningham, to talk about the thinking behind the new Word Add-In, and why this update is about much more than “just” Word.
