Legal Transformation: a law firm perspective with Chris Georgiou

Chris Georgiou is the head of Ashurst Advance, Ashurst's global "New Law" division. He is a former securities and derivatives partner who successfully made the transition from traditional lawyer to legal business professional. Chris, Alex and Elliot covered many topics related to the changing nature of legal practice, including: * When and how did "New Law" get started? * Are the drivers of change consistent across in-house teams and law firms? * The role of professional project management in legal practice. * How will the changes in legal practice affect how law firms see themselves and their place in the market? * Will future law firms become "one stop shops" offering a range of multidisciplinary services? * To what extent has conservatism (of people, business models, etc) held back legal transformation historically? * What are some examples of good, and not so good, change management programs that Chris has experienced. * What are Chris' views on the future of "New Law"?
