Going global with the legal ops career path project It was great to get the project going today after the kick off call a week or so ago. The first seven groups now have details on how to proceed and it's amazing how global the project is. Of the 60 participants that have been grouped so far: - One group is based in the Americas, five groups are based in EMEA and one group is based in Asia/Australasia (around 15 countries represented) - It's a good mix of consultants, in-house and law firm legal ops people from circa 50 organisations - One firm has even included someone from their HR team There are still some people yet to be allocated and I'll do that shortly (if you've contacted me and I haven't responded feel free to chase!). People are still able join the project (more details here: https://lnkd.in/epj6d5Jy) - just reach out if you're interested! #legalops #career

A common mistake by companies that are new to hiring flexible legal talent, ALSPs, solo practitioners, etc. -- they often try to view their decision through the same lens they would a permanent hire. There aren't many flex talent scenarios where hierarchical fit should weigh more heavily than the ability to ramp quickly and get the work done effectively and efficiently. But won’t they get bored with the work? Not every legal professional has dreams of running a team. Many people in this space have chosen to focus on being great at day-to-day work in exchange for more freedom and flexibility. Or will they cost too much? For a variety of reasons, more experienced candidates often have lower rate expectations than mid-level folks right out of big firms or their first in-house role. If your team is hiring for an interim role or overflow project, factors that impact ramp time and reliability should weigh heavily -- things like previous interim experience, similar industry/company experience, attrition risk, and expertise in the particular area of need. A little more experience than you think the work entails can go a long way in these areas.
