| 1:15 pm | Reinventing Legal Practice — What Got Us Here, Will Not Get Us There! by Terri Mottershead, CLI Executive Director, CoL The legal industry is undergoing profound transformation, and while much of the focus has been on legaltech and artificial intelligence, that is just the tip of the iceberg. Law will never be practised the same way again! The traditional law firm business model is changing. Firms are merging, acquiring and reforming new leadership and management teams, and embracing different ways to conceive, develop and deliver legal services and products. Workforces, workplaces and workspaces are changing. New and different skills are critical to meeting client expectations in an increasingly crowded and sophisticated legal marketplace. Amidst all this change, one thing is certain — what got us here, will not get us there! In this interactive seminar, Terri Mottershead will identify the changes taking place in the legal industry, and connect them to the new capabilities of the legal leaders and legal professionals who will successfully navigate them. She will draw on her local and international experience to challenge your assumptions, and encourage you to share your experiences, experiments and collaborations on future-proofing for the next best practices. |
| 2:30 pm | Digital Transformation by Jennifer Walbank, Director of Technology and Information Systems, CoL Digital transformation is the integration of digital technology into all areas of a business, resulting in fundamental changes to how businesses operate and how they deliver value to customers. The areas of focus for transformation are: • Customer experience • Product and service innovation • Marketing and sales • Automated provisioning of services • Risk optimisation (customer insights) • Enhanced control via real-time information provisioning and decision making The outcomes of digital transformation for businesses have been the provisioning of better decision making based on data analytics; greater connectivity with customers, colleagues and suppliers; achieving greater productivity with automation, replacing the high-volume, low-value transactions with automated machine technology; and the ability to innovate products, business models and operating models. Jennifer Walbank will discuss the digital transformation at CoL and other legal entities that have benefited from their journeys. |
| 4:00 pm | Security Focus in the Digitally-Transformed World — New Threats and Information Security by Jennifer Walbank, Director of Technology and Information Systems, CoL This session will focus on security in the new world, and provide a definition of what cybersecurity really is and what is practical to deploy. Gain a high-level approach to insight into the appropriate level of security deployment and expenditure; a common understanding across the business of what is important to protect, and what the new threats and gateways are; as well as the levels of protection necessary for data in today’s data-driven businesses, including compliance with General Data Protection Regulation. |
