116. Low Productivity in Your Law Firm? Don't Blame the People
About this episode
The episode discusses the importance of improving systems over blaming individuals for low productivity in law firms.
At the recent ALA conference, I attended several talks that framed low productivity as a personal issue, and I don’t think that’s the whole story. In today’s episode, I push back on that narrative and explain why shifting the focus from blaming individuals to improving the systems they work within is the key to solving productivity challenges. I also discuss how taking a systems approach can help you identify the real bottlenecks, make work visible, and create a more collaborative environment within your team.
