3. Listen to this Humanise The Numbers Podcast with Will Farnell on whether he believes an accounting firm should be team first or client first.
Will believes that, firstly, the client experience is driven by the purpose of your firm, and in a truly human-centric firm there has to be a balance between the needs of the clients and the needs of the firm's team.
Will also stresses that a highly engaged and skilled team will understand the goals and aspirations of their clients, while at the same time understanding and valuing their own goals and aspirations and those of the firm.
Do you get this balance right? Will openly admits that, for him, this has proved to be a challenge along the way. Listen here:
