KM Legal 2011

A two-day conference that will ensure you:

  • Understand what your clients really want and innovate, to deliver first-out-of-the-gate added-value services, exploiting technology advances
  • Learn about the role of knowledge management (KM) in managing and pricing alternative fee arrangements
  • Use technology to power effective internal knowledge sharing and push information to your fee earners before they realise they need it
  • Hear two very different perspectives on sourcing: 1) from a firm that is implementing outsourcing and 2) from a firm that is currently considering different sourcing options
  • Benefit from one speaker’s thoughts on the future of PSLs and another’s on how the knowledge function could be structured – and how to get buy-in for change
  • Build an effective KM team comprising people from different backgrounds with different skill-sets
  • Discover how the role of KM is changing, especially in terms of the interplay with other law firm functions and disciplines, and debate what law firm KM really means in 2011
  • Find out how you can exert your own influence to ensure that KM is always on your Managing Partner’s strategic agenda
