    Some thoughts from Alistair Maiden on what to do when you need a breakthrough.

    SVP Consilio - former CEO and Founder of SYKE

    I’ve probably been between a 13 and 10 golf handicap for about three years. Obviously I’ve reached the point where my level of natural talent - or lack thereof - combined with my facility to play regularly, and properly practice has taken me as far as I can go. Without an adjustment to the amount I can play, the amount I can practice or my level of talent, which is unlikely to improve, things aren't going to get better. As a comparison, I have had to get used to the fact that I'm now pretty rubbish at cricket. The reality of that is, I do still play occasionally, and I just try and enjoy it.  Anyone who knows me would say that I would be probably the least casual cricketer ever. I was angry, aggressive, competitive, and always very focused on winning.  But I guess the reality is that I don’t actually play often anymore. In a business context, after a relatively normal-paced start, in the latter half of my career, I've been surprised and delighted by progression. Often when the progression in other things is not comparable, I find it difficult to cope with. I've got a natural mindset that I can do anything. I decide it's going to be good, so it is good. Part of the reason golf is different is, unfortunately, in golf, you can't delegate. Can I break through? Is it possible? It's not in my nature to make peace with it.

    This week, several members of the Consilio LLC Advisory team participated in the Alternative Events #InHouseTech2024 Summit in London, contributing their knowledge and expertise alongside fellow industry leaders. Alistair Maiden facilitated an engaging discussion on the future of CLM, featuring Jonathan Bisset, Emmy Hackett, and Mark Leicester. Another highlight was Jonny Badrock's session where he joined forces with three industry experts to assess the performance and impact of Microsoft #Copilot, six months post-launch. We'd love to hear from you about your journey with this technology. What has your experience been like?

    I was involved in an illuminating discussion at the Alternative Events #InHouseTech2024 Europe Summit this week. We discussed our experiences with CLM tools, and the various challenges and opportunities they throw up, and what features and functionality we’d like to see down the line. The panel also pondered the current state and future direction of CLM tools.  One such issue is cost. The cost of implementing and maintaining a CLM tool remains prohibitive for many organisations, not least if it is to be customisable. Current tools are often clunky, have functionality gaps, and can be difficult to tweak or integrate to other systems. But the panel were excited for the near future. More intuitive and flexible CLM systems are not far off and we can now envision AI powered front end, which can interact with the user, generate contracts from natural language, apply organisational rules and templates, and access existing contracts and databases. These systems will surely reduce the burden of traditional CLM architecture, proving to be more valuable and efficient. Thanks as always for the invite and especially for the fascinating chat.
