A Productivity Crisis in Law: Practical Ways to Work Smarter
Join us on Wednesday 5 March with speaker Alex Harding, a barrister and Head of Claims at a transactional risk advisory firm, to discuss productivity in the legal profession and the future impact of Artificial Intelligence.
Discussion topics will include:
- How modern legal practice has come to be dominated by constant connectivity and certain ‘shallow’ skills
- Why many of these developments in working practice were unintended and are not optimally productive
- How the technological advancements of computing and AI may soon render some of these skills valueless
- Why lawyers need to rediscover uninterrupted ‘Deep Work’ and the value of daily routine to produce high quality work which is not easily replicable
The talk will also include practical tips on how to create working systems to improve daily productivity. Each attendee will also receive a short briefing note after the talk providing a step by step guide on how to implement the practical tips that are discussed.
