In this episode, we’re delighted to speak with Heidi Gardner about smart collaboration – a term she coined to talk about how we need highly-specialised experts to come together tackle more complicated issues than any of them could do on their own.
We take a deeper dive into her world-leading research on how this impacts for legal professionals, and more recently, her research and analysis on what this means for in-house legal teams.
It’s a fascinating and insightful conversation and I particularly like how Heidi has taken a potentially misperceived soft-skill of collaboration and brought indisputable evidence as to how it brings tangible, bottom-line impacts.
