Latest / Aon at The Top: Interviewing Executives on their Paths to the C-Suite and Boardroom

Chief Legal Officer: The Mistake That Breaks Startups | Derrick Alesevich
In this episode of Aon at the Top, I sit down with Derrick Alesevich, a C-suite executive who's spent two decades building unicorn technology companies in Silicon Valley, to uncover what it really takes to lead legal teams through hyper-growth, billion-dollar acquisitions, and the chaos of early-stage startups. We dive into the stark choice every in-house attorney faces that determines their entire career trajectory, why transparency and communication matter more than perfection at early stage, and the hidden cost of hiring legal counsel too late.
