when times get tough, the tough get better. <\/strong><\/p>\n is your firm ready? <\/strong> join the study; get the answers.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n by rick telberg<\/em><\/p>\n how do you rate your firm? let us count the ways…<\/p>\n actually, we counted seven ways, or rather seven qualities by which one can rate an accounting practice or finance department: leadership, technology, learning organization, business development, workplace morale, client satisfaction, and strategy execution.<\/p>\n after tallying 1,748 responses in a succession of online surveys and one-to-one interviews over the last six months, it’s emerging as pretty clear that in most ways, most professionals rate most shops as mostly pretty good.<\/p>\n but “good” may not be good enough in today’s tough business environment.<\/p>\n to be sure, there are critical – and critically important – differences between leading firms and lagging firms. and we’ll get to those at another time.<\/p>\n
