5 Growth Options What growth options, if any, will your law firm pursue in 2012?

8 In Summary: Law Firms: 1. Are seeing fewer equity partners as a permanent trend 2. Do not have the partner turnover they would like 3. Have associates that are not incentivized like the past 4. Trying to mine the middle ground where they can grow appropriately Some things to consider: 1. With a lack of associates looking to be the next leaders, how can a firm grow organically? What about succession planning? 2. How can successful lateral growth be maintained? 3. Partner demographics show aging populations, what is the plan? 4. How can law firms ensure continued success? 7

9 How do we Encourage the Right Behavior? You get what you pay for! 8

10 Historic Compensation Systems Mission No.1 is to Preserve the Partnership 9

11 The Importance of a Proper Compensation System Preserving Profitability = Preserving the Partnership Preserving = the Firm Profitability = Compensation Levels Threshold for Happy = Partners 10

12 Historic Compensation Systems 1. Equal Partnership 2. Team Compensation 3. Lock Step 4. Unit System 5. Eat What you Kill 11

15 Lock Step 14

16 Unit System 15

17 Eat What You Kill 16

18 Historic Compensation Systems What kind of firm are you? 17

19 Scorecard Approach First and Foremost: You need to establish goals and metrics that drive your firms stated strategy 1. You need a strategy 2. People need to know what it is Secondly : 1. Establish the core metrics to be analyzed 2. Set realistic goals 3. Set stretch goals 4. Don t hesitate to add subjective criteria and ranking associated 18

20 What is Your Strategy? Recognize your strategy 1. Poll your partners 2. Ask your clients 3. Follow the money Potential issues 1. Strategy and tactics are often confused 2. Contrasting priorities (geographic/practice area driven) 3. Failure to achieve strategic goals 4. Unrealistic expectations 19

21 What is a Scorecard? A structured performance management tool geared towards aligning behavior with desired outcomes 20

22 Simple Scorecard Output Goals 1. Easy to read/distribute document to determine individual strengths and weaknesses 2. Result that is easy compare to stated goals and peer groups 3. Automated output that can be updated/adapted as needed 21

23 Simple Scorecard Output Goals 22

24 Balanced Scorecard Goals Kaplan & Norton 1. Translating the vision into operational goals 2. Communicating the vision and link it to individual performance 3. Business planning; index setting 4. Feedback and learning, and adjusting the strategy accordingly 23

25 Partner Scorecard Goals Law Firm Specific 1. Objectively measuring how partners are helping the firm meet its strategic goals 2. Consistently measuring partner performance a. Understanding where a partner excels or falls short can provide insight into development plan b. Changes overtime to the methodology will occur 3. Providing a tool that can help with goal setting and partner development 4. Providing a quantitative starting point for partner compensation determination (secondary) 24

26 How to Determine Goals and Metrics As owners of the firm, what are partners responsible for? On what criteria are partners assessed? Generating business for the firm Understanding client needs Providing work to associates Managing matter and client profitability Being innovative/visionary Inventory management Managing client relationships Performing legal work Mentoring and supervising others Being a team player Expense management Be a good lawyer 25

27 Goal: Build A Sustainable Organization What Would You Measure On a Balanced Scorecard? Grow Firm Revenue Enter selected new markets Engage new clients Increase client LTV Manage Drivers of Profitability Utilization Realization Leverage Margin/Yield Deliver Value Quality outcomes Efficient work Balance Practice Specialization & Breadth Expertise in key areas Complementary products Exhibit Civic Responsibility Support community Matter Management Staffing Project Management Recruit & Retain Talent Client Relationship Management Client Relationship Management Cross-selling Trusted advisor Succession Planning Operational Excellence Operational Excellence Rate setting Intake Cash flow optimization Create Efficiency Through Technology Attorney development Roles & accountabilities Knowledge management

48 Sample Output 47 47

49 What We Have Learned 1. Not a one size fits all solution 2. Take the personal element out of it, use for business development/strategy 3. Essential to have support from the top 4. Positioning is important ( scorecard may not be the best term!) 5. Alignment with firm and practice strategies 6. Not just a reporting exercise 48

50 What We Have Learned 1. Tie into business and strategic planning 2. Affects staffing plans for the future 3. Provides insight into strengths and weaknesses of the firm 4. Reinforces the behavior of partners vested in firm sustainability and growth 5. Use as a compensation tool is secondary 49

51 Parting Thoughts 1. Compensation MUST be tied to your firms strategic goals 2. No compensation system will appease everyone 3. Communicate, Communicate, Communicate 4. External sources WILL NOT solve your problem 5. Not everybody has the same skill set or wants the same thing 50
