Savvy managers no longer look at contracts and the law reactively
but use them proactively to reduce their costs, minimize their
risks, secure key talent, collaborate to innovate, protect
intellectual property, and create value for their customers that is
superior to that offered by competitors. To achieve competitive
advantage in this way managers need a plan. Proactive Law for
Managers provides this plan; The Manager's Legal PlanTM. George
Siedel and Helena Haapio first discuss the traditional, reactive
approach used by many managers when confronted with the law, then
contrast it with a proactive approach that enables the law and
managers' legal capabilities to be used to prevent problems,
promote successful business, and achieve competitive advantage.
Proactive Law for Managers shows how to use contracts and the law
to create new value and innovate in often neglected areas - and
implement ideas in a profitable manner.

Based on a model used in the Harvard Business School course on
leadership, the three key elements of decision making (the Three
Pillars) are strategy, law and ethics. This book shows students how
to use the Three Pillars to make successful business decisions that
manage risk (the Law Pillar) and create value (the Strategy Pillar)
in a responsible manner (the Ethics Pillar). Through the Three
Pillar framework, students will understand why law is a positive,
value-creating force that enables them to succeed in business. The
book applies this practical framework to six areas of the law that,
according to surveys, are most important to business leaders:
employment law, product liability, government regulation,
intellectual property, contracts and dispute resolution. The book
includes many end-of-chapter scenarios that enable students to
practice their decision-making skills using the Three Pillars
model.
