Catriona Wolfenden talks us through her journey from reluctant solicitor to Product & Innovation Director at Weightmans.

Discussing the firm's (much to Ben's fascination) 34-strong Product & Innovation team, Catriona covers:

Striking the right balance between virtual work and physically getting together with some sharpies and Post-Its.
Maintaining culture when split across different offices and hybrid working arrangements
The predicament that there are always way too many product & innovation projects than you can ever service
The sometimes 'alien' function of sales within a law firm
Adapting to wearing a software vendor hat
The soft skills to look out for in fresh out of university legal engineers
Shifting from billable hours to the 'it's ok to fail' mentality of innovation

And many more topics. Whether you're considering legal career, a law grad, an experienced lawyer looking to cross over to the world of innovation, a supplier or simply a legaltech fanatic, there's something for everyone here, folks!
