As you all know, as a legal operations analyst, I am constantly looking for ways to demonstrate the value and efficiency of my work. I recently started reading Mori Kabiri’s book on Legal Operations and have found, in the pages I’ve read so far, precise tools to optimize processes and manage them more effectively. The explanations about KPIs and metrics are clear and applicable. Although I haven’t finished it yet, it has already left me with a very positive impression. Once I do, I’ll share some insights with you to keep you updated.

Great book, great timing. We have been asking for metrics from our law firm partners for years. This will make it much easier for them to understand and respond to the Voice of the Customer. This is a must-have reference book, whether you are in a law firm or in-house.

This book (in English or Spanish) is a great reference resource that helps explain what a metric is, what an indicator is, the different types of indicators, and how to visualize data for legal management. The book also provides different examples of indicators related to spend, budget, management, diversity, data quality, legal compliance, and risk management; and as if that weren’t enough, it also includes an entire chapter on best practices with a diagnostic tool for legal data analytics. In any organization, having the right indicators is crucial to properly guide work, innovation, technology implementation, and process improvement. This book will save hours of research by presenting a wide variety of indicators and helping teams decide which ones are right for them. This book is a major contribution to Spanish-language literature on legal operations, informed by years of industry experience, and will help accelerate knowledge for legal management teams across Spanish-speaking countries.

Recommended Reading: A few days ago I started reading "Operaciones Legales KPIs" by Mori Kabiri, an essential book for everyone who (like me) is looking for new ways to align legal management with the business. You can tell it was a titanic effort, combining Mori’s vast experience with very serious academic work. Great job!

I believe that the guidance in this legal operations book is a very good example and provides a huge amount of material. You need to review it calmly and see how to get the best out of it, but it brings excellent tips that we, as lawyers, don't naturally have. We're not used to working with charts or being very organized with information, and I have no doubt this is something we must implement and learn little by little.

What a pleasure to rediscover the joy of simply learning and challenging myself. The book 'Legal Operations KPIs' arrived earlier than expected!!! Paraphrasing a wise mentor friend: 'I will read it as if it were a novel.'
