– You’re an experienced tax, accounting and compliance specialist and you are a little embarrassed about the state of your practice
– You haven’t been able to take an unplugged vacation in at least 2 years
– You hire competent talent but are frustrated that they are not meeting your performance standards
– Your cash gap is growing from unbillable time, slow paying clients and escalating tech stack among other things
– You’re a really good person who wants to be a more effective manager
– You’re not running your practice: your practice is running you
