NewLaw Guru: Partners need to get real
World-renowned legal thought leader, Mitch Kowalski, has
criticised the current generation of law firm partners for not
taking serious steps to future-proof the Australian legal
industry.
Speaking at an Australasian Legal Practice Management
Association (ALPMA) event, Kowalski said law firms are not only
failing to address the needs of their clients, they are also
failing to address the needs of their own millennial talent –
despite already having the tools to do both.
"Let me ask you: how many law firm 'innovation'
announcements are simply good public relations, and how many are
real, actionable, and sustainable? The clatter of information about
law firm innovation has become overwhelming and confusing,"
Kowalski said.
