And if you run it as a practice, that means you're managing it from the top down… But the problem with that kind of management system from top-down is that you can't scale that business and you become a prison in that business because if I take you out of there, that's the end of the business... But if you want to grow and scale it, you need it to be managed from the bottom up, not from the top down.” - Ed ChanUSEFUL LINKS:Download FREE eBook: The Accountants Recruitment Secrets Playbook GET 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 transcript ________________ PS: Whenever you’re ready… here are the fastest 4 ways we can help you fix and grow your accounting firm: 1.
