Do you know Melissa Prince Esq., ALPP, ALPM?

Because holy cannoli if you don’t, you should.

Melissa is Chief Client Value and Innovation Officer at Ballard Spahr LLP. Her list of awards and accomplishments far exceeds the 1,300 character limit I have here. But trust me — she is the real 👏 deal 👏.

She is a Six Sigma Green Belt, Accredited Legal Pricing Professional (ALPP), and Accredited Legal Project Management Professional (ALPM), frequent speaker, and contributor to the Ballard360 Insider blog. (see link in comments below)

My favorite thing about Melissa is how *REAL* she is. I love talking to her about data, innovation, adoption, and the challenges of being a senior-level woman (and mom to boot) in the legal industry.

Among the many words of wisdom Melissa has shared with me, the best piece of advice I often come back to is this: “There is no innovation without adoption.” You can innovate the best solution, but if you can’t get buy-in, you haven’t reached your goal.

She is a mentor and a friend, and I am honored to know her.

Meet today’s #followfriday – she is a woman who inspires!

(PS – Stay tuned for a special Women’s History Month blog from Legal Internet Solutions Inc. featuring Melissa and several other amazing women in LegalTech next month!)
