ISSUE IN BRIEF
Earlier this year, our Briefing Frontiers Legal IT landscapes research 2021 found Microsoft Teams had carved out a comfortable place for itself as the dominant tool for internal collaboration at leading law firms during the pandemic. And, time and again in our activities over the last 12 months, we’ve heard how aspects of what’s possible are beckoning to support people to work on projects more effectively together, prioritise actions, and become more individually productive.
So it was certainly time for one of our deep dives into the changes really being delivered on the ground at firms like yours. Are we indeed seeing the formation of a new ‘centre of gravity’ for the working day, as one technology leader spoken to for this publication puts it? And, if so, how can you balance the appetite for more business systems and information to be pulled into the evolving ecosystem – ready for all to surface on demand – and the essential oversight of effective risk management to guard against ‘collaboration chaos’, or worse?
