Colleen brings over 34 years of comprehensive Chief Legal Officer experience guiding and managing all legal matters for large companies to her PLG Law colleagues and their clients. She has held both attorney and operating positions, and as a result greatly appreciates the financial and business impacts of legal advice.

She has worked in a variety of industries over the course of her career, and across the globe.

She is equally at home counseling boards and shareholders about corporate governance (publicly or privately held), assisting clients in doing business internationally, handling mergers and acquisitions, creating supply chain, software and technology arrangements, advising on HR, administrative and facilities issues, and crafting e-commerce, data protection and privacy programs and agreements.

She has authored numerous books on international business, shareholder buy-sell agreements, and non-profit organizations, and publishes and presents frequently on these topics as well as communications issues in the workplace, differences in gender communication styles, and the changing technology and privacy world.
