Review


"Finally, a book that integrates know-how, professional development, information management, economics, and technology in a comprehensive formula for truly successful knowledge management. Drawing upon his credentials as a lawyer, an accountant and a former law firm KM director, Matthew Parsons shares his expertise, providing real world advice, hypothesis and metaphor, in a refreshingly readable resource for anyone looking to develop an effective KM strategy, particularly within the law community. -Joy London, Know-how & Training Manager, Allen & Overy and creator of Excited Utterances, a web log devoted to law firm KM


"This is an excellent book that deserves international recognition. Indeed it should be mandatory reading not just for managing partners of all law firms but also for those innumerable, practicing lawyers who cynically reject knowledge management as an esoteric distraction. With assurance and insight, and a clear flair for theory and practice, Parsons demonstrates that effective knowledge management can and should be at the heart of the more profitable and successful practice of law." -Professor Richard Susskind, OBE


"Parsons has produced the definitive work on knowledge management within the law firm environment. It is a "must read" for all law firm managing partners and KM and IT directors. He not only provides a compelling argument to show the importance of knowledge management, but he also tackles the thorny questions of the productivity paradox and return on investment. Importantly, he provides law firms with a vision for the role of KM, how to ingrain it in firm culture and finally how to implement that vision. It is likely to become a seminal work for all interested in knowledge management in professional firms." -Norman Letalik, Partner, Borden, Ladner, Gervais LLP, Canada


"...this is an important book for the leaders of mid-tier law firms who have delayed their move into formally managing their knowledge assets, and as a refresher for those in larger firms who have knowledge efforts underway."--Law Society Journal
