HiveThink^P

A framework purposefully designed to improve team and client experiences.

Consulting

Innovation & business consulting

HiveThink^P is just one of the many ways we can help your organisation solve its legal challenges. One of our core services that we pride ourselves on at Hive Legal is our innovation and business consulting, which draws on the way we do it to improve the experience for people within the legal ecosystem.

Design thinking through the power of purpose

At Hive Legal, we recognised early on the transformative potential that design thinking has in the legal industry. This inspired us to create HiveThink^P, a tailored design thinking framework built upon key design thinking principles — collaboration, experimentation, courage, iteration, and creativity — and our commitment to improving the experience of our clients and team through innovative solutions.
‍
Central to HiveThink^P is the power of purpose, symbolised by the "P" in its name. Purpose is integrated throughout the framework, guiding our approach whether for internal projects or client engagements. The framework enables us to identify opportunities, develop human-centred solutions, and iteratively improve processes.

For our clients, the HiveThink^P framework ensures holistic support on your projects, aligning with your goals and enhancing your processes through a true understanding of your vision and values. Whether we're helping you improve contract approval processes, develop wellbeing programs internally, or refine your communication strategies, HiveThink^P meets a diverse range of needs. By embedding this framework, we empower you to achieve the best results through a superior experience benefitting all stakeholders.

The kind words they’ve said

Cancer Council Victoria and Hive Legal collaborated together to redesign our contract approval process via HiveThinkP. The Hive Legal team ran a HiveThinkP session with key stakeholders from across the business to gain an in-depth understanding of user experience with our former contract approval process including identifying what was working and what were considered pain points to be addressed. As a result of this process, we were able to re-design a contract approval process that is user-friendly, enables our staff to better understand the process more generally, supports our staff to better identify relevant contractual risks and has made the overall contract approval process at Cancer Council Victoria much more streamlined.

Legal design thinking is often seen as complex and difficult. We wanted to do some myth-busting with the design sprint series and show that it was possible to move from concept to creation in 90 minutes — and, we did! When we were deciding who we could collaborate with — people who had deep experience in the legal world but also the ability to create something new and different in this space — we looked no further than Hive Legal. This was a fabulous work experience with outstanding professionals that resulted in an amazing series, and more. It became the first of many collaborations with Hive Legal and is an ongoing professional relationship we celebrate every day!
