Ana Cristina Porto Mauri

I am a legal manager with solid generalist experience, having focused my career on Contracts, Civil Law, and the management of Legal Departments and other legal support areas, such as Legal Controlling. My strong analytical skills with a focus on detail are a highlight in my career. Furthermore, I have extensive background in providing legal counsel at all levels of the company in corporate, civil, labor, and regulatory matters, as well as expertise in reviewing and drafting contracts, commercial agreements, and other legal documents to ensure compliance and minimize legal risks. In addition, I have advanced skills in strategic negotiations, contributing to successful deal closures. In leadership and people management, I stand out for my human-centered approach aimed at team development, grounded in a commitment to fostering an empathetic, collaborative, and productive work environment. My ability to inspire, motivate, and cultivate talent has proven crucial for achieving organizational goals, earning me recognition with the Inspirational Leader Award in 2021 and 2022 during my tenure as legal coordinator at BMA. As a passionate advocate for continuous improvement and innovation, I sought a distinctive edge by specializing in Business Process Management (BPM). This choice has set me apart for my ability to explore territories beyond my legal knowledge repertoire, always striving for an unconventional perspective. Due to this competence, coupled with expertise in legal risk management, I have had the opportunity to lead projects involving the creation and restructuring of Legal Management areas. This has resulted in multiplied outcomes through process redesign, adoption of innovative technologies, data analysis in decision-making, and the implementation of performance indicators. In the current nonlinear world in which we live, where questions drive the world, not answers, I believe the role of Legal departments in companies must evolve, embracing a proactive, predictive approach, and fostering an ethical and responsible organizational culture. My goal is to contribute to companies achieving excellence through the synergy of motivated teams, efficient processes, and technological innovations. To this end, I am completing an MBA in Administration and Business at IBMEC, aiming to broaden my knowledge and managerial skills..
