In this podcast, the third episode of seven in CLI’s Digital Literacy Series: Automation Mini Series, Tom Dreyfus, CEO and Co-founder from Josef asked and, together with his guests answered, the question for legal practitioners – “What should I automate?”
Tom was joined by guests Anna Golovsky, Executive Manager, Legal and Company Secretariat Operations from IAG and Gary Adler, Chief Digital Officer from MinterEllison - legal operations and digital gurus - who shared their experience, provided practical tips and case studies from their automation journeys from in-house legal departments and law firms.
Topics covered in the session included:
- identifying automation opportunities in your day-to-day work
- process mapping to isolate sticking points as you move forward
- analysing successful case studies for experience sharing and inspiration as you progress (analogous inspiration)
- the importance of identifying and addressing definitions, team, scope, transparency, challenges and obstacles
- emerging areas of legal automation: automated guidance or legal advice; document automation; workflow & process automation; intake & triage tools; and education & inspiration
- how to get everyone (inside and outside your legal business) involved, energised and focussed on automation (and more broadly, innovation)
