The Law Career Revolution is upon us, are you ready?

The uberization of your legal career is now here - are you using the right tools to navigate?

Our world has changed. And it's about to get a lot better for all of us.

YouTube and Twitter have both recently announced the sharing of revenue with those who create the popular “shorts”, and the world of individual content providers are now some of the largest entertainment companies in the world. 

The world of money is being shaken up by Bitcoin and XRP and not the Dollar or Yuan. The payments world is being led by the likes of Klearium and not Moneygram, and change in the Banking sector is being led by Klarna, Bitgo and Nexo and not Barclays and HSBC. The growth of alternative legal services providers and legal tech solutions reaffirms this in the legal space, change is clearly wanted and it is happening at a frightening pace.

Sports stars are now more frequently breaking away from traditional promotional contracts and taking control of their own destiny and revenues. Authors are now self-publishing their books, TV stars are launching their own podcasts, and the list goes on and on where the skill holder is in charge of their own destiny, and money.

There is not an industry that is safe from this change - the people, us, those that are traditionally considered "customers", want something different, we want to be recognised as "creators" and we want control back.

The last decade was the decade of social media and conglomerate tech monopolies - and the people of the world have had enough, research regularly shows that, on average, people are sick and tired of “being the product” and solely being used to drive ad revenue and shareholder value along with mining our personal data and accepting a narrative we may not want. 

It would appear we want choice and control.

On the career front, LinkedIn changed the recruitment climate in 2004 when it gave the world access to profiles and data, and accessibility really shaped the talent landscape.
