Your Accounting Firm’s Biggest Threat isn’t What You Think...

I'd also strongly recommend to partner up with as many people as possible. If you're the stereotypical accountant, you're unlikely to seek out other people and embrace change, which is very understandable but indeed detrimental. However, I'm sure most people would like to know what else they can do to improve their firm or their own skills, but simply don't know where to look. You'd be surprised to see how creative other people can be and what other people have seen in the market; I've seen firms do a combination of outsourcing and automation whilst keeping a specific Sales team on board to keep an eye out for the clients and potential new business. What seems to help is to remain curious, because many other firms/people also don't know how to navigate this fast changing landscape and your guess is just as good as theirs.
