Boards Must Be AI Literate Without Jettisoning Leadership Basics
You don’t need to be on the board of a technology company to know and viscerally feel the effects of an artificial intelligence surge.

I’ve seen how AI has disrupted nearly every company in every industry.

Women Mentors Can Remind Us to Ask For What We’re Worth Original
March is Women’s History Month, and recently, I was reminded “mentoring” can take many forms. One is never too old to receive it or too young to give it. My band, the Paula Boggs Band, is preparing to release its fifth studio album. Like most bands, we’ll have a show to celebrate the release. In our case, we will co-bill with another artist: a woman who, though a generation younger than me, has been in the music business longer.
DEI Is Still a Priority Abroad. Global GCs Must Walk a Tightrope Original
The room buzzed with anticipation earlier this year as Thinkific founder and CEO Greg Smith introduced me to a room of company employees with others tuning in by Zoom. The topic? Diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. No, we weren’t in the US. We were approximately 50 kilometers, or 32 miles, north of the US-Canada border in Vancouver, British Columbia. Here, as far as I could tell, all were eager to hear what I had to say.

“What’s in it for me?” I’ve lost count how many times I’ve heard some form of that retort from the lips of a US lawyer when discussing the American Bar Association, the oldest voluntary association of lawyers in the world. Despite its nearly 400,000 members, the ABA’s rolls haven’t included a majority of America’s current lawyers since 1979. Over the past half century, a combination of societal trends have contributed to the decline.
What It Means to Be a Lawyer When the Rule of Law Is Under Attack Original
As constitutional crises multiply in Los Angeles, in courtrooms where government attorneys defy judges, and in the Oval Office where the president wields his pen, I’ve been thinking a lot about the “rule of law.” On Law Day I stood in a crowded courtroom with my right hand raised as I recited the attorney’s oath—pledging allegiance to the Washington State and US Constitutions. It’d been 33 years since the first time I had said those words.
Look Past Big Law to Build an In-House Team to Weather the Worst
Recently I returned to my “mothership” Starbucks Corp. where I served as Chief Legal Officer for a decade. I left 13 years ago and hadn’t entered its renovated turn of 20th century headquarters building in over 10 years. I was asked to speak on what organizers hoped would inspire this newer generation to think creatively as they navigate a vexing array of 2025 issues.

New play spotlights Detroit, 'metaphor for Black America'
One measure of that re-emergence: the break-through plays of Dominique Morisseau, including Skeleton Crew, which receives its Seattle premiere this week, Sept. 20–Oct. 14, 2018 at ArtsWest Playhouse.

Setting her dramas in Detroit is “like writing about family,” explained Morisseau, in an email exchange.

But when Strawberry Theatre Workshop announced recently that it was canceling one play by Craig Lucas (“Reckless”) in mid-rehearsal and replacing it with another Lucas work (“Prelude to a Kiss”), it was for another reason entirely. With the press announcement of the change came a detailed statement explaining the move. (It is also excerpted on the company’s website).

A four-day celebration of Aretha Franklin begins today in her hometown of Detroit. Her funeral will take place on Aug. 31. R.E.S.P.E.C.T. As a Black girl in segregationist Virginia, I did not yet know “feminism” or “Black power” but I knew her song and how to spell its title.
