Successfully managing a change initiative is no simple feat,
regardless of the size of the firm - distilling the process of
change into a workforce takes careful planning and support. Change
is stressful and difficult for people to process and accept, as we
often cling to what we know. This is especially true of lawyers,
who are notoriously averse to change. However, the legal sector has
begun to rapidly transform - and the firms that don't change with
it are going to struggle to stay relevant. In these turbulent times
for firms, change initiatives must be properly managed to ensure
the whole firm can successfully shift to the new norm and stick to
it. Without the proper support and management, a firm runs the
risks of alienating their workforce - who will not take well to
sudden and imposed change. Managing Legal Change Initiatives looks
to illustrate the best methods of introducing and managing change
in a sector that is known for being adverse to it. The book
highlights the critical obstacles and pitfalls that law firms will
face during transitional periods, and outlines some of the best
methods of approaching organizational change; from building a
change framework to follow, to encouraging a shift in partner
behavior through the compensation strategy. This new book also
explores why change is so difficult for individuals - with
discussion of the neuroscience behind change, and the role of
emotional intelligence in leaders to help garner a transformation.
With the disruptions to legal services predicted to continue for
some time, it will be those firms who adapt, put into place, and
act upon a change management strategy that will be the ones
capitalize on changes to come.
