Resources are important when you're trying to learn, and books like "Legal Operations KPIs", are important to look and, navigate and understand and how you take that truth from that book and make it your own in your organization.
Legal Operations KPIs points to one of the most important challenges in my day-to-day work: understanding the efficiency and quality of our service and how we can demonstrate the value we deliver, especially through KPIs. KPIs in the legal space are often a challenge, balancing the objective with the subjective. This book offers not only practical tools to understand, calculate, and apply these indicators, but is also useful for both beginners and experts in the field.
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.
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.
Extremely important reading. I will add it to my 2025 reading list.
If you do not have a degree in this field, this book [Legal Operations KPIs] brings you plenty more than the basics – put in a legal context! Instead of explaining specifically how for example, throughput time can be utilized in a legal ops context, you can eg. just have a read about MAA (read the book if you want to know what it is 😉). The layout of each spread on each metric is well thought out and repeats itself. If you are struggling with a specific issue, you can start browsing and easily comparing various metrics to establish which could help you track and collect data on the situation.
