Interwoven - Redefining the Relationship between the Business and IT

Picture 4.jpg

My session on Tuesday May 24 will be:

Redefining the Relationship between the Business and IT

Today's most pressing IT challenges involve changing business processes. This session explores strategies for achieving closer alignment and communication between IT and the business — from gaining essential management buy-in to working closely with business personnel to understand requirements and drive change and quality improvements. IT staffers need to be able to relate to the business and ask the right questions, while the department as a whole needs to provide better transparency and articulate more clearly their current objectives and activities. At a philosophical level, both sides need to come to an agreement on the fundamental question of who should drive and own business process change: business or IT.

This "by invitation only" event os for the CIO's and Technology Partners of top global law firms.

Make Your Lawyers Client Magnets

MagnetSmall.jpg

I am pleased to have been invited to present a Teleseminar for the Association of Legal Administrators and thier lawyer guests called

Make Your Lawyers Client Magnets

Tuesday, June 13, 2006
2-4 pm Eastern
1-3 pm Central
Noon-2 pm Mountain
11 am-1 pm Pacific

Many lawyers would rather do anything but marketing and selling, while other lawyers thrive on these activities. But the market for clients is becoming more and more competitive. Even long-term clients are shopping around for legal services. It is critical that attorneys, even partners, acquire the skills they need to "bulletproof" their relations with their existing clients and learn how to interest and attract new ones. In this teleseminar, you will learn how to determine who your best clients are and how to glue them to your firm. In addition, you will learn how to use the firm's inside rainmakers to teach attorneys the necessary skills to build and strengthen their business. Learn how to overcome challenges and to change the lawyers' mindsets about marketing/client development — selling!

Hour 1 - Special Opportunity

Invite your partners, managing partners, senior associates and marketing partners to attend the first hour of the program that will cover the importance of learning the skills to retain existing "crown jewel" clients and to attract new ones. At the end of the first hour there will be time for Q&A with the speaker. Encourage them to ask questions so they come away understanding how important it is to build the real skills of client development.

Hour 2
Learn how you, the firm administrator, can create and implement a program in your law firm to raise awareness of the importance of acquiring business development skills. You will also learn how to teach these key skills to your associates. Find out how to overcome the challenges of lawyers being too busy or too reticent to "market." There will be additional Q&A following this segment.
