In this episode, Dave Boland (Ogletree Deakins) joins Ted for a conversation and shares the different ways that Ogletree defines their KM teams. Dave has led two KM teams at different organizations (Ogletree and Grant Thornton). KM at Ogletree was recently awarded APQC’s Excellence in KM award. The firm is one of eight organizations recognized by APQC this year for Excellence in Knowledge Management. The American Productivity & Quality Center (APQC) is a global authority in benchmarking, best practices, process and performance improvement, and knowledge management. Ogletree was 1 of 8 to receive the recognition, but 1 of 6 to receive it at the enterprise level (more than 400 companies applied for the recognition). This highlights Dave’s vision, leadership, and commitment to building and leading world-class KM organizations, and helps complete Ogletree’s KM story.

Ted is joined by Patrick DiDomenico (InspireKM) and David Rueff (Baker Donelson) to discuss the evolution of Innovation in the field of Knowledge Management. The group questioned whether these KM and Innovation teams were fundamentally different or if they were simply rebranded versions of each other, with varying answers from different firms. They also brought up the challenges faced by law firms in adopting new practices and the resistance to change due to skepticism. They also discuss the slow response to change in the legal industry.
