Core Principles for Successful Knowledge Management

For the past 40 years, Sally Gonzalez has worked with scores of national and international law firms and law departments to develop bespoke KM Strategies and implement transformational KM initiatives. During this time, Sally has learned that all successful KM programs are built on a set of core principles that transcend time, geography, culture, and technology. During this keynote, Sally will share some of these core principles with you so that you can apply them in your world, no matter what kind of KM initiative you are undertaking or what role you play in your KM organization.

Untether The Law

Businesses evolve constantly; law firms... not so much. Law firms accept the purportedly self-imposed, unacceptable limitations of history, regulations, and our own egos. The result: We hire professionals and then box them in. We talk about innovation under low-hanging ceilings. We practice law, but we rarely provide legal services or solve business problems. Joshua Fireman will lead us through a blunt, clear-eyed look at how law firms and their clients can both profit from the integration of professional skills across strategy and operations. In other words, we are going to drag law firms kicking and screaming into the 21st century of professional services.
