\ncall me before you do anything: the art of accounting<\/i><\/a><\/p>\n

planning is a trait of most accountants, including me. maybe that is one reason we become accountants. i always seemed to write out plans \u2013 for myself, partners, staff and sometimes personal activities.<\/p>\n

more:<\/b> the art of the deal: starts with listening<\/a> | fired from my first job<\/a> | staffers need to speak up with clients<\/a> | bored by cpe? you\u2019re missing out!<\/a> | clients buy solutions, not hours<\/a> | roger is my only client<\/a> | blown loan covenants and how to recover from them<\/a> | beyond the numbers: be a friend<\/a> | perception becomes reality<\/a>
\n\"goprocpa.com\"exclusively for pro members. <\/span><\/strong>log in here<\/a> or 2022世界杯足球排名 today<\/a>.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

one time i had a plan for a new staff person who became our tax manager and eventually ran our firm\u2019s tax department.<\/p>\n

he was very bright, aggressive and eager, plus i liked him a lot, right from the beginning. he also was the only person ever who wanted his wife to meet with me before he accepted the position. he wanted a career, not a job. i liked that.<\/p>\n

we started him at a generous salary and i made note of what i believed would be his salary progression over the next five years. at the end of the first year his raise was right on target with my plan, and i told him that. he then asked me what that plan was and what he could expect over the next few years. i told him that while i had a generous plan for him, i wanted to keep my options open and also needed to consult with my partners so i was not going to tell him what it was.<\/p>\n

as it turned out, the later raises he got were substantially greater than my plan. his value far exceeded our expectations, and while he did not become a partner, he along with our firm administrator helped make up our five-person management committee.<\/p>\n

if i had told him my planned raises, he would have eventually left. a ceiling on his advancement would have been created, his surpassing our expectations would not have been factored in, and he would have felt shortchanged and dead-ended.<\/p>\n

make plans. discuss them with your partners and other involved people. but sometimes, keep them to yourself. use discretion and never put yourself in a position that creates a ceiling for someone you want to reach for the stars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
