## Summary
This week on ⁠Studying Law Around the World Podcast⁠, I had the opportunity to speak with ⁠Greg McNab⁠, a Partner in Dentons' Corporate group and the Canada Co-chair for the firm's Mining group.Greg’s career path is a masterclass in leveraging past experience. He began his professional life as a mechanical engineer and later worked as an engineering specialist for the provincial police. He eventually went to law school, bringing a deep, practical understanding of heavy industry into his legal practice. He navigated the massive Stelco restructuring at McCarthy Tétrault, transitioned to an in-house role, and ultimately built a massive cross-border practice spanning Asia, Australia, Africa, and the Americas.In this episode, we discuss the realities of executing international M&A, how the definition of a corporate stakeholder has completely transformed, and the most valuable communication skill a junior lawyer can master.
