I'm jumping on the bandwagon of those who already recommended the book—and that just confirms it’s definitely worth reading. You can find a lot of content about KPIs and OKRs in general, and there’s plenty of talk about how Legal Operations provides value to an organization. But I’ve never seen such a precise analysis and listing of metrics that are specifically suited to provide evidence of that value through reliable data. I’m glad I read it before tackling some KPI-related topics this year—and I’ll certainly recommend it to the team.

I just read the recent article “Law Firm KPIs: The Professional’s Handbook for Pricing, Productivity, Profitability,” and it feels like a must-read for any firm serious about growth.

If you wish to deepen your knowledge on this topic, I strongly recommend reading Professor Mori Kabiri’s book – Legal Operations – The Professional’s Handbook to Operational Excellence, as well as following upcoming initiatives from Jurídico Sem Gravata, which has proven to be an excellent source of learning and networking.

This week, while reviewing materials and updating content, I came across this data point (image below) in the fantastic Legal Operations KPIs book and thought: are we measuring what really matters in legal? And more: are we learning from what we measure? Or just stacking data? I leave this reflection here — and keep learning, to continue teaching with purpose.
