Episode introduction copy

In this podcast discussion with Hugh Stedman of C&H Stedman in Hemel Hempstead, you'll hear Hugh talk about how discussing the future of his clients’ businesses with them, instead of looking at historical reports, has enabled him to offer strategy and then accountability meetings, which have transformed the way his clients see his firm. In Hugh's opinion, actually talking about the future is so where we need to be as a profession.

Hugh also shares his stories of helping clients with outsourcing, strategy, recruitment, and how a serious illness last year created a huge opportunity for his firm and allowed his team to step up in a way that has had a profound impact on the future of the firm.
