Dean Sheehan

About

My work sits at the intersection of governance, legal risk and enterprise strategy, with a focus on enabling growth while maintaining strong oversight, resilience and decision quality across international markets. I have led large international legal functions, navigated regulatory and geopolitical complexity and partnered closely with c-suites and boards on issues including governance architecture, risk ownership, executive accountability and key strategic projects. As a General Counsel, I am a holistic enterprise leader, responsible for shaping trust, resilience and long-term value for the Company.
