Editor’s Note:
Open your eyes and look around at what’s happening outside your isolated envelope! It’s a message that goes straight to the heart of the book review in this issue’s Ideas article. However, that’s not where I recommend you start your read of this issue of the Litigation Management Report. Instead, what I would like you to do is to read the John G. Kelly Report summary of the Mealey’s Litigation Management Guidelines Conference I attended in New York. That will provide you with insight on why I made that opening comment and devoted the remainder of this issue to innovative approaches to bill review and performance measurement. The Litigation Management Strategy article on Alignment opens a window for litigation managers and insurance defense firms to look through and explore a new approach to legal expense management. The Ideas book review offers insight on how to make that exploration a rewarding experience.
Enjoy the read.

Peripheral Vision
George S. Day
Paul J.S. Schoemaker
Harvard Business School Press (2006)
Open your eyes! Take a look around! What do you see? We have all heard these challenges before and when reminded of them each of us can undoubtedly recall a time early in our adolescence when a much admired teacher or trusted mentor inspired us to expand our intellectual horizons. What all of these expressions are exhorting us to do is exercise what in knowledge management jargon is known as peripheral vision. It is nothing new, but it is a lesson that most seasoned managers and professionals need to relearn.... click
