Episode Description

How did year end reviews go for your team?  Did you anticipate the asks from the team? What does that mean for this coming year’s profitability?  Because accountants are standing up and asking to be valued!

How much do accounting firms really stand in their own way when it comes to the path to awesome?  A lot, is the answer.  How much pain do we really need to be in to recognise that the time to change traditional practices is NOW?
