Is my path to GC realistic? 32yo, going into my 7th year, now lead Product Counsel in Pharma reporting to GC, previously in house in a niche regulatory role for 2 years. Was a HC/LS regulatory and transactional attorney for 4 years prior to that. I’m also the US Privacy Officer and am taking on new areas of law like employment counsel and AI. What more can I do in the long run to someday be a GC?
