Innovative thinking by design: Maddocks recognised for innovation strategy

Maddocks has been named one of Australia’s most innovative law firms.

Maddocks was today listed by Australasian Lawyer in its Innovative Firms 2020 report for their innovation strategy, titled MaddX.

The strategy combines investment in client solutions, training in design thinking, regular innovation challenges and an annual innovation week to promote a culture of innovation across the firm, providing their people with the tools and resources to generate ideas, experiment and then implement.

This is the second straight year the firm has been listed in the Australasian Lawyer Innovative Firms report.

Maddocks Innovation Partner Lindy Richardson said the recognition was a great acknowledgement of the firm’s efforts over many years to encourage creative solutions to issues faced by clients. She said:

‘We see innovation as a way of creating value for both Maddocks and our clients. In the past 12 months we have held a number of design thinking workshops with clients to explore ideas for pursuing new ways of working together.’
