in 2013, jody grunden’s firm, summit virtual cfo, became one of the first financial firms in the world to go fully remote. at the same time, they narrowed their focus to creative agencies. those two changes, combined with a weekly subscription pricing model they’ve been using since 2007, resulted in a “hockey slope type ramp up.”

bissett bullet: cash is not the issue

today’s bissett bullet: “there are certain criteria that will always need to be demonstrated for you to become a partner in your firm. the ability to find cash up front for investment, however, is no longer one of those criteria.”

by martin bissett

the path to partnership in the accounting profession is evolving. no longer is it necessarily the case that a lack of available funds is a barrier to realizing your ambition.

a forward-thinking practice will find a way to enable their rising stars to fund the deal. don’t allow a lack of cash to get in the way of your career aspirations. focus instead on who you need to be and hone the foundational skills and behaviors you need to demonstrate in order to be the most outstanding candidate for partnership in your firm.

today’s to-do:

if you aspire to partnership, list those necessary skills and behaviors. demonstrate those you have and ask for support with those you still need to develop. show your commitment to the practice now and be recognized as a candidate for the future.
