2017 ALPMA Summit
Sailing the 4C’s
13–15 September 2017 | Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre
The 2017 Summit was all about helping you develop and apply the four key 21st Century learning skills (as identified by the influential P21 organisation) at your firm to drive innovation and ensure your firm flourishes in the transforming legal landscape.
The theme of this year’s Summit is Sailing the 4 Cs, an endeavour to apply Collaboration, Communication, Critical Thinking and Creativity to your business’s best practice:
- Communication – effectively using communication skills and technology to inform, motivate, persuade, and share ideas.
- Collaboration – working effectively and efficiently with others, sharing knowledge, talent and experience to achieve desired outcomes.
- Critical Thinking – Looking at problems in a new light; mental processes and strategies to solve problems, make decisions, and learn new concepts
- Creativity – producing and implementing new, useful ideas and trying new approaches to get things done.
Thank you to our fabulous speakers, delegates and partners for their support of this record-breaking Summit!
Summit Research: 21st Century Thinking
In 2017 ALPMA and Infotrack collaborated on research to understand:
- How Australasian law firms support the key 21st century learning skills of Collaboration, Creativity, Critical-thinking and Communication
- What actions firms have taken to improve their skills in these areas over last 12 months
- How effective these efforts have been in achieving desired outcomes.
The short, multiple-choice online survey was open for participation by Australasian law firms until Friday 28 July 2017.
