Topic:
New Strategies for Solving the Technical Skill Crisis in Law Firms
For years law firms have focused on expanding their technology and use of automation tools, and now they’ve turned their attention to ensuring these tools are fully utilized by staff. By doing so, firms have uncovered disparate skill levels and the realization that employees are not equipped to keep up with the demands of technology. As a result, both IT and HR managers are now charged with addressing these business challenges to provide solutions that will successfully impact and improve performance.
To address this important topic, Profisciencē Partners will lead an engaging discussion by illustrating how workplace performance can be significantly improved through skill assessment, competency management, and training programs that include personalized learning plans designed to target critical skill gaps. Theresa Lundquist will show that assessment is firmly entrenched in law firms across the U.S. as she highlights how firms are addressing the challenge of improving the technical skills of employees. At this informative session, she will introduce tools that can relieve the administrative burden of managing complex education programs that are focused on improving performance and productivity, and show that when implemented well, skill assessment is a win-win for both the organization and its employees.
