| Abstract: | Finding trainers who understand the accounting profession and can connect with your staff is sometimes tricky. Before sending employees to "school," the firm's partners should clarify long-term-revenue, niche- development and expansion goals and then carefully vet the trainer to ensure his or her approach is on target. The paper states that CPA firms and other professional service providers say outside trainers who understand their culture-or even their special vernacular-are rare. The problem that arises: When firms obtain instruction not tailored to their profession, they may waste money and time-resources better used for billable work and practice development. This article offers tips to help a CPA firm analyze what employees should learn and choose trainers appropriate for its staff. |
