Technology Changes – How to Overcome Resistance
Without understanding how to implement real change firms’ investment in technology can be wasted. A lack of user adoption and understanding of the business value of change often causes projects to fail and law firms to fall behind business in their use of the latest technology. The panel will discuss their thoughts on how to make change happen in a law firm and why it is important to overcome resistance if firms are to be seen to be innovative.
