Since James Turoff took over as General Counsel at The Hershey Co. at the end of May after a brief stint as Interim Legal Officer, he has been urging the legal department to rethink.
Turoff wants its in-house attorneys to spend less time on routine work and focus more on finding ways to become strategic business partners. As part of this effort, Turoff recently created a position as Chief Compliance, Ethics and Privacy Officer within the Legal Department.
