It is truly another world of knowledge!
I finally received my book — written by one of the great thinkers on law firm management and operations. Entrepreneurship in the legal field taught me that strength does not come from victories, but from the ability to persevere — even when everything seems discouraging. The book "Legal Operations", by Mori Kabiri, is about that: transforming chaos into method, pain into learning, and persistence into strategy using data.
Extremely important reading. I will add it to my 2025 reading list.
And we thought about the Brazil community because initially this book and this concept applied to the United States, Germany, Mexico, and some other countries. But our scenario — Brazil — is very different. […] There is no such map or KPI book. The idea is to start writing things in this chapter that are relevant to our scenario, so that someone in a legal department today facing the challenge of implementing KPIs can say: I'm just getting started, I don't know where to begin. And then have this material, this forum, and a lot of information available.
