Before we close for this issue, I would like to take a moment to call out
one of our Distinguished Peer Awards – a new one for 2021. The Trailblazer
Award is designed to recognize a collaborative initiative between a member
entity and a business partner. This collaboration takes the form of an early
deployment of a new product and/or service and is focused on a ground-
breaking new technology.
For 2021, nine pairs of ILTAns took the plunge and applied to be the
inaugural Trailblazer Award winners. Here, I would like to recognize
runners-up Fisher Phillips with LegalMation, in addition to 2021 winners
Simpson Thacher and Jigsaw. Well done to all!!!
If you were not able to join us for the Distinguished Peer Awards, I
strongly recommend that you listen to the recording of the awards program.
Several of our winners specifically address issues around managing risk
and scope creep. And you will also be inspired by the stories of our Lifetime
Achievement Award winners – their journeys and the risks they took. Click

When next we meet in Peer to Peer, we will be discussing collaboration –
something that has evolved quickly over the past two years. I am anxious to
see what collaboration looks like when the office is a purposeful destination
rather than a default place to work and how the hybrid workplace chooses
to address collaboration. Let's hear what you have to say on this! Article
submissions are open in the month of April.
So, until June, Happy Spring (and Fall!)! Hugs to all! ! ILTA
