Technology Strategy That Matters: Engaging Leadership Around Application Modernization
Law firm leaders are being asked to make increasingly complex technology decisions, yet many firms struggle to create meaningful discussions around technology strategy. At the same time, legacy applications, cloud migrations, AI readiness, and rising operational costs are forcing firms to evaluate whether their current technology portfolio is helping them compete… or holding them back.
This session will provide administrators and operational leaders with a practical framework for engaging firm leadership in technology planning. Attendees will learn how to create and lead effective technology or innovation committees, build annual discussion agendas, and evaluate application portfolios through a business-focused lens. Topics will include cloud readiness, modernization strategies, technology investment planning, and the emerging role of AI in application decision-making. Participants will leave with actionable approaches to guide productive conversations that align technology investments with firm goals.
Learning Objectives:
- Build and facilitate effective technology or innovation committees that engage firm leadership.
- Assess whether applications are supporting or hindering operational efficiency and business objectives.
- Develop a framework for prioritizing modernization initiatives, cloud adoption, and technology investments.
- Create annual technology discussion agendas that align strategic planning with emerging technology trends and firm priorities.
