The Rise of the MicroNed
I feel truly blessed. I have spent 30 years in Legal working with some of the best brains out there – decent, capable people trying to do the very best things for their organisations. This short article is about exactly this. Doing the best thing for your business and an emerging approach to making this happen.
The Challenge
Over the years we have had many questions put to us which have all been in the zone of “how do we really make this business perform?”. These have included the following and have spanned both business services as well as legal groups:
“How do we professionalise?”
“Are we set up in the right way?”
“Why does it take us so long to do things?”
“Are we competitive and as good as others?”
“What should our ideal structures look like?”
“Are X department as good as they need to be?”
“Why is that team not profitable?”
“I don’t know what I don’t know”
“Why don’t we know this stuff?”
“I wonder if that team are telling me what I want to hear and are too focussed on doing what they like?”
These are all great questions and I have seen many attempts at addressing them but seldom do people feel they have hit their sweet spot.
