Swing by Booth 400, where your tech adoption can catch up to your tech aspirations!
The post Meet Me At ILTACON: Traveling Coaches, Legal Learning Innovators appeared first on Above the Law.

While this year’s ILTACON will undoubtedly showcase the astonishing pace of the development of legal technology, tech adoption is proving to be an industry bottleneck. 

As Traveling Coaches CEO Gina Buser notes, lawyers consistently give their firm’s training programs poor ratings, and the onboarding of new hires and laterals is also in need of real transformation.

Her company aims to change that reality. 

Since 1995, Traveling Coaches has led the talent development and organizational change movements in the legal profession

It’s a company that goes beyond traditional training, becoming a strategic partner to its clients while offering invaluable insights and consulting expertise. 

Its passion to empower others overflows to the global community as well, where the company is helping break the cycle of extreme poverty for women and girls.

As Buser notes, Traveling Coaches’ impact in the world and for its clients is all about helping others thrive.

Here, Buser shares just how tech can enable lawyer training, how the legal industry should adapt to technological change, and what ILTA attendees can expect when they stop by her booth. 

(ILTA attendees – feel free to book a meeting with Traveling Coaches here, and please join Traveling Coaches for their Music City Mixer in the Tennessee Ballroom on Sunday night after the opening reception.)

Can you provide some more detail on the problems you solve and benefits you provide?

We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to fulfill their potential, and the resources to make it a reality. 

Many firms struggle to develop their employees and we help them solve that challenge. 

We understand the challenges and opportunities that lawyers face in a competitive and dynamic market. 

We know when your people grow, your firm grows with them.

Our learning strategies are tailored for law firms and create a culture of learning that leads to increased performance, effective onboarding, elevated customer service, and reduced turnover. 

What do you think the legal tech industry is doing well? And what might it be missing? 

Although legal tech evolves at an astonishing pace, actual adoption of available technology is much lower than would be expected given the investment. Lawyers consistently give their firm’s training programs poor ratings, and the onboarding of new hires and laterals is in need of real transformation. 

Traveling Coaches believes the secret ingredient in harnessing technology for the maximum benefit of the whole firm is to focus on the individual employee and practice groups. When the training experience is relevant, engaging and effective, firms develop a culture of learning. 

This culture of learning promotes inquiry, flexibility, and the acceptance of change, which accelerates the adoption of new products and new processes. 

What’s one thing lawyers can do to be more tech savvy?

Embrace new work methods and pursue appropriate training to stay ahead. Consult experts such as Traveling Coaches to design role-specific or practice group-specific learning paths that sharpen your performance. 

Gaining pertinent technology skills such as using AI-powered tools or document automation software enhances efficiency and improves work-life balance, allowing you to focus on higher-value activities. 

And attend a Traveling Coaches AI Responsible and Effective Use session, to better understand the benefits and risks associated with the use of AI.

These advancements not only streamline your practice but also position you as a forward-thinking professional in the evolving legal tech landscape. 

Is there anything else you’d like ILTACON attendees to know about you?

If you are tired of infrequent and ineffective training, come see Traveling Coaches. 

We are the thought leaders and the innovators in legal learning. We love our customers and our commitment to them is evident in everything we do. 

Our speaking sessions are highly attended, and our Sunday night party is the networking highlight of the conference! 

You can also see our sense of humor and our imaginations at work Monday night at the business partner costume competition in the Exhibit Hall.
