“this workshop will take everyone on a deep dive into the client services and management processes that define a future-ready firm,” padar says. “it’s a real opportunity for us to take our firms in new directions, with real implementation tools and a roadmap to get started. and all you need is an internet connection and a computer with video capabilities.”
the six-hour event, sponsored in part by cch and avalara, will leverage new interactive community-building technologies never before deployed in the cpa profession. conference attendees will earn six cpe credits and receive padar’s new book as a free bonus.
“this is like no cpe you’ve ever experienced before,” says padar, who is also principal and chief executive officer of her own chicago-based tax and accounting practice, the new vision cpa group. “we are building a new online technology-driven classroom to include video, complete interaction and roundtable discussions.”
in “the radical cpa,” padar describes the fundamental tenets of a future-ready, customer-centric firm built for today’s rapidly changing business environment.
attendees will share and learn techniques to:
• plan, budget and implement cloud technologies to streamline workflows and deliver enhanced client services;
• shift to social media channels to both find and attract new and more profitable clients and to service those clients faster, better, cheaper;
• embrace a new vision of customer-driven innovation in developing and marketing new products and services and in reinventing internal firm processes and procedures; and
• create a new accounting firm business model to supplant timesheets and the billable hour in favor of flexible, results-driven workplaces, client focus and value pricing.
“for those firm leaders looking for support and direction on how to change and take those crucial first steps – this event is for you!” padar says.
