In the 9th year AD, the Roman proconsul Publius Quinctilius Varus returned to the German provinces with three legions to suppress the rebellion of the tribe. He did it successfully three years earlier – but this time, the enemy has decided to change strategy, and the legions were destroyed. Last cry of Varus is known as: “Ne cras, ne cras” – “Not like yesterday.”
The strategy of each law firm must be able to adapt to new opportunities or a sudden change in circumstances. But where the competition is getting tougher, it will not be like yesterday. In 2016 year, at the summit of The Lawyer Business Leadership, where there were many leading advocates, it were voiced the key points of effective policy-making.

Strategies should include analytics of future trends, identify possible deficiencies. When we are faced with the market and the environment, which is changing rapidly and in which our strategy is to be effective, scenario planning is a powerful tool.
The alignment and prioritization
General Sir Peter Wall, the former head of the British Army, describes the strategy as a balanced relationship between the intentions, methods and means. The gap between strategic plans and action requires a clear alignment: the difference between what we want people to do, and what they do.
Occasionally someone from the company of meaningful level can not say about too many competing priorities issues.
At the Summit of business leaders, senior partner commented it as simple and elegant, but at the same time, the hard fact: “In a slow, stable business environment, resource leveling, people, funds and projects is a daunting task, but in the volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous world of today and tomorrow, to achieve consistency is a problem of the first order. “
For efficient organization of the company it’s necessary:
Only by adhering to all these points, we have the right company’s development strategy, which in future will help to transcend all barriers from the outside and lead to tremendous success.
