A fit-for-purpose legal function meets the needs of the enterprise, its customers, society, and the planet. This requires a reassessment of its role from the customer perspective and a reimagination of how law can more effectively utilize existing tools, resources, data, organizational models, and metrics to achieve customer objectives. This is the crux of what I do– my writing, speaking, consulting, and teaching across five continents.

I work with Governments, multinational enterprises, large-scale legal service providers, and not-for-profits. The goal is to extract greater value from the legal function and to align and integrate it with business to create value and elevate the end-to-end customer experience.

I founded Legal Mosaic to mine and leverage my experience and global network to provide a holistic perspective of the legal industry/ecosystem. Law’s stakeholders must not only be internally aligned but they must also integrate with business and society. I see this process as a legal mosaic, so the name resonated. It also reflects my love of art and the delightful dilemma of being a creative person functioning in a highly analytical profession.

I am also a co-Founder and Executive Chairman of The Digital Legal Exchange, a unique, global, not-for-profit organization created to teach, apply, and scale digital principles to the legal function and facilitate greater integration of corporate legal teams with the businesses they serve.

I am frequently engaged as a keynote speaker and have spoken and consulted throughout North America, Europe, Asia, South America, Africa, and Australia both in person and online.

In 2018 I was appointed by the Singapore Academy of Law (SAL) to serve as the inaugural “LIFTED Catalyst-in-Residence” to advance innovation in legal delivery and education in Singapore and the region. I have since been made a Distinguished Scholar and work closely with SAL on several strategic projects and events.
