General Counsel Greg Boss of global biotherapeutics leader CSL Limited today accepted the World Recognition of Distinguished General Counsel from the Directors Roundtable in recognition of his professional accomplishments and passion for ethical leadership.

“The General Counsel is more important today than ever in history. Boards of Directors increasingly look to the General Counsel to enhance financial and business strategy, compliance, and integrity of corporate operations, so we are pleased to gather some of the leading corporate advisors on the East Coast to recognize Greg with this distinguished honor,” said Jack Friedman, Chairman, Directors Roundtable.

At an awards event in Philadelphia, Boss shared insights on how his position can help a global company like CSL deliver on its promises:

“The role of the General Counsel is to help advise and counsel the organization through a challenging environment, while staying true to our values and delivering on our promises to patients, partners, and shareholders,” Boss said. “I’m very proud to say that the legal team at CSL plays a pivotal role in helping to create a culture where people are encouraged and empowered to live our values.”

The General Counsel’s office helps CSL navigate regulatory changes in more than 60 countries, private and public payer austerity measures, intellectual property challenges, advances in digital health and countless other issues.

Boss noted that, as CSL marks its 100th anniversary in 2016, the company’s 16,000-plus employees work every day as if someone’s life depends on it.

“No matter where someone sits within the CSL organization, our work is driven by our passion in making a difference in the lives of people who we treat,” he said. “When we say we’re going to do something, we do it.”

Leaders from area companies attended the event, as well as partners from Philadelphia-area law firms, who provided their perspectives on the challenges and opportunities that General Counsel and their advisors must navigate in today’s business climate.
