The #LPMHQ Story

Started in October 2018, as an LPM community building initiative that continues to this day, #LPMHQ is a monthly scheduled live Twitter chat for current and future legal project managers, pricing experts, and process improvement professionals. 

#LPMHQ is open to both practicing lawyers and business of law professionals including legal operations professionals from law firms, in-house legal teams, alternative legal service providers and consultants who have an interest in learning or sharing their relevant experiences. There is no membership required to participate.

Emeritus Advisory Group: Rick Kathuria, Kim Craig, Paul Easton, Micah Ascano, Lauren Mueller, Peter Dombkins, David Rueff, Audrey Giannola, Larissa Kruzel, Jennifer Fowler, Mary Mahone, Eric Helal, and Sinna Al-Ani.
 

Advisory Group: Peter Secor, Jason Pyrz, Arthur Wilson, David Cai, and Liz Perez.

What is #LPIHQ?

This is a new conversation that started January 11, 2021.
 
The LPI in “LPIHQ” stands for “Legal Process Improvement” and will focus on topics regarding running and delivering legal and business process improvement projects within the organizations of respective participants.  We welcome contributors to share insight from their experiences on corralling stakeholders, leaning-out existing processes, successes from working with the “coalition of the willing,” and how they’ve learned from past mistakes. Again, there is no membership required to participate. All are welcome!
