💭 Creativity, innovation, and disruption. I've yet to hear this described better than this (heard on the Disrupt Disruption podcast).


The way that Andy can connect these complex topics is masterful. Each three are interconnected, and successful organizations (yes, even law firms and legal departments) spend time each. 


(A)LSP Circuit Board: the wonderful folks at Crafty Counsel released the beta version of what they call the Alternative Legal Service Provider Circuit Board - a visual guide for buyers to the alternative legal service provider landscape. Ben and the team seem like they have big plans for a broader release in the autumn. This is why they created it:


We want to provide some clarity to this complex, and often confusing, part of the legal industry. Our (A)LSP Circuit Board will connect the components and illustrate the landscape in a simple, visual way to help corporate clients creatively solve their legal problems

🧠 Something I find repeating, especially at peak frustration: common sense doesn't mean common practice.


This is why sometimes it is important to repeat things that seem obvious both as self-talk but also during training, presentations, and more. In fact, there is an art in writing something, so as you're reading, it sounds like common sense, but it lingers in your mind after you've finished and blooms into many connected thoughts.


Until next time. Be well.
