In an era in which law firm performance is increasingly public - and a determining factor for where the best lawyers decide to practise - it seems clear that firm management would want to adopt tools that are proven to improve performance. An increasing number of firms are now adopting this long established tool and there is growing evidence that firms which employ balanced scorecards to drive strategy implementation have significantly improved shareholder returns. Balanced Scorecards for Law Firms report provides a vital introduction for firms wanting to know more about how the balanced scorecard can improve their own firm's performance. The report and the tools explained within it reach well beyond revenue per lawyer and profit per equity partner to identify meaningful measures and actions related to the development of quality people, highly satisfied clientele, and superior business practices and processes. Specifically, the report will give you a clear understanding of: The balanced scorecard concept and tool, its practical application and the results you can achieve from its adoption; How to apply the concept in a law firm environment - the central opportunities and challenges the tool presents for law firm management; and Each of the major elements of a balanced scorecard - with an emphasis on their meaning in a law firm environment: Financial measures; Client measures; Learning and growth; and Business processes. Balanced Scorecards for Law Firms provides you with pragmatic advice, real world case studies and invaluable expertise to help you begin utilising a tool that can dramatically improve focus, accountability and execution of strategy. Begin outperforming your competitors in an increasingly difficult and aggressive market place.
The first human being in fairy-haunted England witnesses the battles between the light-loving fairies and their thunderous, mountain-dwelling brothers, the giants... Alexander the Great is granted a glimpse of the fate of all would-be world-conquerors, and trembles... Flighty, fun-seeking youths idle away the languorous hours by asking a magician what wonders he can show them... A novice in a monastery allows his hunger for forbidden knowledge to lead him to a dangerous book, and an even more dangerous companion... A Greek maiden longs to look on the face of Jupiter, father of the Gods, unaware of the prophecy of what will happen should she do so... Men made of iron, born to do nothing but make more men of iron, question the one thing that has been forbidden to them...These are the fantasy tales of John Sterling, disciple of the Romantic poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge, friend of Victorian man of letters Thomas Carlyle, and a writer admired by Ralph Waldo Emerson, who sought a publisher for his works in the United States.Sterling's powers as an imaginative writer were still developing when he died in 1844, at the age of 38. But the promise of his best tales showed him uniting the Gothic and Romantic elements of the fantasy literature of his day and taking them in new directions, in search of enchantment, wonder, and the sometimes dreadful sublime.
