When Tiger Woods was a youngster he was diligently coached by his father to develop what was to become a multi-million dollar golf swing. His father demanded that he practice diligently and frequently. With his father’s keen interest, relevant experience and ability to provide expert tuition, Tiger learned to train his mind and body to adapt to perfecting his golf swing and sharpen his aptitude for the sport in general. His coach was tough and exacting with the goal for Tiger to become the world’s number one golfer. With wise coaching and Tiger’s diligent practice, history tells us that their strategy became reality.

Changing a law firm’s practice management system can occur every ten to fifteen years. Additionally, with organisation's merging or being acquired, data consolidation in the systems operating between the parties becomes necessary. The drivers for change in systems can vary. Progressive firms invest in such change more often to capitalise on the benefits associated with modernisation, intuitiveness, security and integration.

As progressive firm’s probe the future to search for competitive advantage, rapid developments with technologies often makes this an obvious place to start. To capitalise on generating new business opportunities and to modernise your approach to engagements to accommodate the demand for fixed-fee arrangements, a robust technology review will help identify outdated practices and poorly designed technologies operating within your business. A technology review should begin with understanding the current pain points and identifying what specific benefits are being sought.

Smart applications (‘apps’) are typically agile to build and implement and can be relatively inexpensive. Apps bring data-driven insights and actionable steps to the user experience and are best when they are focussed on a specific process, functionality gap or efficiency pain point. However, it is important to not be seduced by the opportunities an app can offer to resolve a business problem as apps are not always the silver bullet.

Recently the New Payments Platform (NPP) was launched and offers Australian businesses and consumers’ greater efficiency and speed when it comes to financial transactions. Not only will business process efficiencies be introduced, cash flow management should also improve. Businesses that register will enjoy instantaneous financial transactions instead of waiting for up to 72 hours before funds are transferred from one financial institution to another. The service operates 24/7, which mitigates the need to wait until business hours commence before payment transactions can be processed.

Business growth and evolution is a desired and expected outcome for successful businesses.

The rate of change has increased exponentially with many people citing advancing technologies as the catalyst for accelerating change.  When compared to the past millennium, the ever increasing rate of change seems more prevalent today than ever before.

​

Whilst change is generally accepted as a necessary consequence to improve our living standards and work practices, change undoubtedly presents many uncertainties and insecurities for individuals, communities and organisations. Typically within traditional sectors, ingrained organisational cultures tend to be particularly resistant to change.

Much can be learned from the demise of Kodak’s photographic film business. Once a thriving industry leader, Kodak fell victim to its inability to embrace change through the introduction of modern technology. Today Kodak is a shadow of its former self.

​

In 1975, the digital camera was invented by Kodak employee, Steven Sasson. At the time, Kodak enjoyed a monopoly over the photographic film industry and lucrative profit margins. Save to say, the digital camera was not well received by Kodak executives ....

​If standardisation is the future, does it provide the avenue for innovation and competitive distinction? In an industry where for many years customisation of systems has been considered the only effective means to handle the complex inner-workings of law firms, it may come as a surprise to some that standardisation has made a revival. So, how can standardisation benefit your law firm?

Put simply, standardisation can provide benefits in four main areas – efficiency, cost, compatibility and agility.

​When querying why business processes are performed in a certain way, we often hear the response “we’ve always done it this way”.

What is the solution and how can organisations make the shift from what they have always done to new ways of working?

1 September 2015

​To thrive in today’s competitive legal market, law firms need to improve efficiency. Matter planning (aka matter management) has been trending over the past decade; so how deeply have law firms invested in improving their legal services to create a new norm? Alternative pricing models continue to be the response to matter planning pressures, but how far can the price discussions go before you devalue the very reason your expertise was sought by a client?

​

2 February 2015

​System integration projects typically present law firms with the challenge of balancing time and financial constraints with delivering best-practice solutions that enable the business to maximise return on its technology investment. Critical to project success is engaging dedicated resources that bring the right mix of technical and business skills. Equally important is to identify the skill and experience gaps that exist within the internal team and utilise the experience of external resources where appropriate.

28 November 2014

In this rapidly changing and fiercely competitive market, it has become clear that the use of technology is critical to success. So have law firms got technology in perspective?

Law firms are increasingly investing in the latest technology, often under the pretence that the investment alone will provide major business improvements. But does the technology deliver value to the business? Does the technology enable efficiencies and opportunity for innovation? Does it make a difference to the bottom line?

15 October 2014

​A supportive and open partnership between in-house counsel and their legal panel firms is a crucial ingredient towards fostering a mutually beneficial relationship. However, is there more to consider? Over recent years, in-house counsel has enjoyed a rise in status as corporations seek to leverage more value from within. This evolution has lured high-profile lawyers out of private practices to head up in-house teams. Armed with knowledge of legal firm margins, in-house counsel has applied greater scrutiny to the cost of legal services.

6 May 2014

​During the golden decade leading up to the global financial crisis many respected business gurus sold the idea that either the 'strategy' or the 'implementation' needed to be right for success to follow. This mantra is no longer true with uncertainty being the new normal. Therefore to remain competitive, adaptable strategies are required that can be supported by achievable implementation. 

3 March 2014

6 December 2013

​When mergers and acquistions (M&A) feature in a firm's growth strategy, opportunities often include expanded services, a broader demographic footprint and financial gains to shareholders. However, when M&A opportunities emerge, otherwise savvy executives can act like hopeless romantics under Cupid’s spell. Given this phenomenon, maybe similar lessons apply to M&As as courtships and marriage.
