One of the most influential and, I think, most important books I've read in recent times is The Answer is a Question, by Dominic Ashley-Timms. It’s important because it lays out a clear pathway to transforming the quality of conversations across your team.

Arguably, it influences how you're going to raise the bar in terms of the conversations with your clients as well.

If you listen in to this podcast discussion with Dominic, you're likely to walk away with insights and ideas that could save you and everyone who is in a management role in your firm a time saving of somewhere between 20% and 40%, which is, by the way, what Dominic suggests is more than likely.

So, please seek out this Remarkable Practice: Humanise the Numbers podcast at HumaniseTheNumbers.online, and scroll down the podcast’s episode page for the contact information for Dominic and for the additional, downloadable resources mentioned in the podcast.

What persuaded Martin Wardle to give up a partnership in one of the fastest growing firms in the Northeast to start his own business, not in general accountancy, but as a specialist tax boutique focusing only on tax returns.

What were the triggers for that event happening?

In the course of this podcast with Martin Wardle of TH WARD, we cover a lot of ground, including the pace of technology and where Martin sees the future of accountancy going. He also tells some great stories about the significant impacts he's had on clients that he's worked with over the years, and he shares a lot about what he's learned, both about himself and about the profession.

This is one not to miss. If you can, join us at HumaniseTheNumbers.online or wherever you get your podcasts.

Given the current pace of technology, how can you know how it will impact your firm?

Well, you obviously can't know for sure, but isn't it good to get an insider's viewpoint on how technology will change things?

In this podcast with Derek Granger of Aris Growth, Derek talks about where he works and how he sees the changes coming through into today’s firms, changes that will have a significant impact, not only on recruitment and training, but also on fundamental work practices.

To hear more about technology and to listen in to a wide-ranging conversation where we discussed private equity and the importance of soft skills in accountancy, go to HumaniseTheNumbers.online or wherever you get your podcasts.
