Seyfarth Shaw Featured in Canadian Corporate Counsel Association Magazine
"Better Service By Design: Project Management and the Quest to Add Value"
Seyfarth Shaw was featured and Carla Goldstein was quoted in the Summer 2010 Edition of Canadian Corporate Counsel Association Magazine in the article, "Better Service By Design: Project Management and the Quest to Add Value." The article discussed how national law firms in Canada are embarking on firm-wide project management initiatives. Carla Goldstein, Director of Strategic Management at the firm, explained, "We implemented SeyfarthLean in 2006 when we saw changes in the marketplace and more vocal objections to the billing by the hour." She further noted, "Even before the recession hit we thought the billable hour was crazy — with some attorneys charging $1,000 per hour." Carla described SeyfarthLean as a stripped-down, simplified version of Six Sigma.
