Masterclasses in Remaking Law Firms

For leaders of all larger law firms one of the biggest questions – and opportunities – they face is how to address comprehensively the multitude of changes in the operating environment. All too often we hear leaders say “We know we have to change. But, where do we begin? How much time do we have? How much should we invest? Basically, it’s a question of what the @#&! do we do?”These trends are not new, they are just increasing in adversity and impact:

• Client pressures to reduce fees
• Requirements to deliver more for less
• Having to match discounting by competitors
• Expenses rising faster than fee increases
• Shrinking contestable volumes
• Rising investment in IT
• New forms of competition
• Changing attitudes to work in millennials and younger generations, and
• More…

To help firms frame actionable answers to these questions and realise the opportunities beaton is offering masterclasses for law firm leaders in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney in How to remain relevant to clients and profitable.
