And the deep and narrow structure is the best way to manage the traffic flow. Because you've got people who are really good at talking to people, managing client's expectations. They're people-people. They're good at communicating with people like them. So they're in their flow. If they're a senior client manager, and then you've got people who are really good production people and, and keep them in their float. And if you, if you have this narrow deep structure, you find that people are a lot more productive. They are a lot happier.” - Ed ChanUSEFUL LINKS:Download FREE ebook: The Accountants Systems Playbook to streamline your practice workflow systemGET IN TOUCH!Website: www.wizementoring.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wizementoring/Twitter: https://twitter.com/wizementoringLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/wizementoring/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wize.guys/?hl=enEmail: [email protected] the full tr________________ PS: Whenever you’re ready… here are the fastest 4 ways we can help you fix and grow your accounting firm: 1.
