jody padar, the author of the radical cpa, has been shaking things up in the accounting world for years. but today, firms are at a boiling point, limited by supply and demand. “you only have so many people doing the work. and what are you going to do? you can’t make the work up. it’s got to get done,” padar said.

the old business model was taking whoever walked in and billing by the hour. but today, we don’t have the capacity. “there’s so much work out there,” she explained. “i have not heard any accountants say that they are looking for work. they’re all saying, ‘stop, go away. i don’t have the resources to serve you.’”

what to do after the prerequisites.

by martin bissett
passport to partnership

staffers aspiring to be partners must learn the key characteristics of successful partners. they also must learn how to develop their own personal plans to achieve partnership. firms and staffers alike need a clear set of procedures, processes and milestones for turning top talent into the next generation of firm leadership.

there are seven critically important criteria by which partners assess partners-to-be. i call them:

the seven c’s

1. the first is competence. as a prerequisite, but only a prerequisite, accountants must master their technical abilities and qualifications, whether it be audit, tax or management accounting. whatever your area of specialty, as a staffer the partners expect you to be able to know at least as much as anyone else who may report to you.

peter margaritis, who also calls himself the accidental accountant, grew up in the gregarious environment of restaurants, “where everybody communicated, not well, sometimes, but they communicated.” so it was a shock when he went to work at price waterhouse, and he “felt that all the air got sucked out of the office, and nobody was communicating at all, and they looked at me like i was crazy.”

his crusade for the last decade or so has been to help accountants improve what we often call soft skills, but which he calls power skills: the ability to communicate clearly and effectively with others. “there’s nothing that will slow you down more in your career than a poorly written memo or email or a presentation that you were poorly prepared for,” margaritis said.

many of the best accountants she knows have come from non-traditional backgrounds like dance or philosophy. megan herself worked in theater for several years before she was thrust into a finance role. like her, these non-traditional accountants apply their native curiosity to understand how the pieces fit together. by leaning into the work and asking questions, they uncover an unknown aptitude for accounting, suggesting that perhaps we should hire for curiosity rather than compliance knowledge.

plan to go ‘live’ post tax season

take another step toward ‘normal.’

by seth fineberg
at large

as you prepare to put tax season 2023 in your rearview, one thing to strongly consider is getting out to a live event as they are back, they need you, and there are even some new ones to take in.

i’m fully aware that cpe alone is not the only draw or reason to leave the comfort of your office or home area. and as i’ve expounded on before, accountants need each other in a live setting. the learning and interaction from a live event full of your colleagues is almost invaluable, but i get the reservations.

traveling to a live event, especially when we know full well that any necessary cpe can be garnered from your computer screen any time of year, may not seem worth the expense. but as the profession continues to evolve, it is hard to compare the return on investment from physically being among the experts, as well as those in your profession who have similar struggles, hopes and dreams as you do.

the first kind of firm argues that there is not much that needs to be managed at a cpa firm. these cynics might say, “come on. running a cpa firm isn’t rocket science. you hang out your shingle. you get clients. you hire staff. you do the work. bill and collect. what needs to be managed?”

first, consider why you want it.

by martin bissett
passport to partnership

the skill in producing financial reports is limited by the quality of the information presented to the cpa by the client. the motivation of the client to influence that financial information comes in many forms, some intentional and some unintentional. competence comes first in being able to resist pressure and present a true and accurate position of the client’s organization.

sounds obvious, doesn’t it? but there’s a twist.

after starting out in audit at a big 4 right out of college, he decided it was no longer what he wanted to do.

“i started an audit specifically, you know, not really having a great idea of what audit truly was, you know, because you take the courses in your undergrad, and you know, you have a section of it on the cpa exam,” birky explained. “but what that material is versus what the job is, you know, are two very different things.”

the tools and processes you use to get you to the next level have to come from or are signed off by you. so, who is teaching you? if you took the leap into a new service area and don’t know where you will land, you can’t turn to staff. they are looking to you for the answers.

“engaging your employees – involving them in the business – can drive revenue growth. an educated workforce can also make better decisions, work more efficiently and seize opportunities faster. teaching your employees to be smart businesspeople can be a big investment, but it’s one that can have a significant return.” – keith lamb, inc. magazine

personnel in any organization, from widget manufacturers to hospitals to baseball teams to charities, work with more enthusiasm and commitment when they genuinely feel part of the organization. when people understand how they fit into the overall scheme and what their role is and grasp the essentials of how the organization operates, they produce higher quality work and are more energized. cpa firms are no exception to this rule.
