Are you confused about LIBOR? To help you understand LIBOR and its impact better, I spoke with with Emma Millington and Miranda Campbell, banking and finance experts from LexisNexis in London.

In this episode, we look at what it means, the key time frames, what the new world will look like and how in-house legal teams should be preparing for the upcoming shift.

So if you need a 25 minute breakdown of LIBOR, this one’s for you. Further resources are in the show notes.

This episode is slightly different. We speak with Milan Gandhi, an Australian lawyer, innovation ambassador, a prize-winning law student and founder of one of Australia’s leading legal not-for-profits - The Legal Forecast.

Given Milan’s credentials and keen focus on law students and early-career professionals, we thought we would focus this episode on helping people who are starting their journey in legal practice.

And to help them, we undertook a myth-busting exercise on some of the more common pieces of advice you might hear around the courtyards of law schools and the corridors of law firms.

This episode, we speak with Professor Steven Vaughan and take a deep dive into his research into ethics and in-house lawyers.

In October of 2019, LOD released a report titled: "Which Way Does the Wind Blow? " which was a collaboration with Steven and his research partner Professor Richard Moorhead. In this interview, we interrogate the data bit more and examine the tournament of influence that in-house lawyers often find themselves.

In this episode, we speak with Amy Jacobson. Amy is an experienced Emotional Intelligence specialist, passionate speaker and inspirational leadership trainer. So, it comes as no surprise that she was excellent guest with so much advice and careful thinking on the topic of emotional intelligence

In the episode, we get beyond the buzzword. What does it really mean for legal professionals, why is trending? Is it actually trending? Is it even teachable? And is it just some zeitgeisty fad with little substance - spoiler alert, its not.

This episode we speak with Ron Friedmann, the Chief Knowledge + Information Officer at LAC Group and long-time commentator and author on the legal industry.

We talk about success, the failures and future of technology in the legal space. We also cover: the meteoric rise of legal operations and whether it’s here to stay, change management and real examples of ROI on legal investment.

In this episode we attempt to demystify AI and how it applies to the legal world. To help us do that, we sat down with Adam Eastell, the Chief Legal and Strategy Officer at Eigen Technologies.

We get specific on machine learning, training algorithms, fuzzy search, confidence intervals and lots more. So if you’re a legal professional wanting to really understand how AI might actually apply - have a listen.

In this episode, we speak with Jordan Furlong about the future of law. What will the legal industry look like in 5, 15 and 25 years time?
