Being excellent and client-focused is no longer enough. Success depends equally on becoming data-centric—extracting data and knowledge from partners' heads into firm-wide systems. Structured, complete data is the launchpad for utilising the potential of Gen-AI, and KPIs are the levers that shape the data-centric culture law firms should want to build.

I am really enjoying reading the book Legal Operations KPIs by Mori Kabiri; the experience has been incredible. The work brilliantly balances practicality with theoretical depth, offering concrete tools for those who want to implement effective performance evaluations in the legal field. What has caught my attention the most so far is how the book structures applicable methodologies without falling into excessive academicism. It’s the kind of reading that not only expands strategic vision, but also provides actionable insights for the continuous improvement of legal processes. As an enthusiast, performance metrics practitioner, and professor on the subject, I can already see from this reading that the book has everything it takes to be a revolution in the definition, selection, and application of performance metrics!

It just arrived, so I’m starting to review it. So far, I like that it starts from zero, covering very basic topics such as which charts to use for which data.

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.
