“In Pliny’s Shoes” is a blog we will be publishing in inhousecommunity.us dedicated to the world of in-house counsels. Our objective is to create a space where to find out more about the work of general counsels and current legal topics thanks to the experience, the voice and the pen of Ricardo Cortés-Monroy, the worldwide chief legal officer at the Nestlé Group headquartered in Switzerland, during 2010-2019. Ricardo is currently a senior vice president at Nestlé and pursues as well a Classical Antiquity master degree at The Open University in the UK. He lives in Blonay, in the French part of Switzerland together with his family.
