Who's going to say no to that? So, they're all going to be interested, and because they already trust you." - Adam Lean
“I feel the accountant is very uniquely placed with a lot of trusts, a lot of relationships that they've got, and a really a look in the inside. And if they can then utilize their observation and bringing into the business owner in terms of what they need to do going forward to make their business better and more efficient and so forth.” – Salim Omar, CPA

“I saw this time and time again, the lack of professionalism in our managerial leadership. And I call it a journey because it's not a one-and-done thing.” - Julian Chapman
"When you are in a managerial leadership role, you have to recognize that you got there because of your technical know-how. And I find that this is one of the big problems that managers struggle with is they have this technical know-how." - Julian Chapman
"It’s really the leader is doing a technical role, many times in the firm. So, they got to do their work and then they got to carve out time, as we said earlier, to do all this leadership stuff. That adds a big challenge." – Salim Omar, CPA

“Go back to your client, list those people who owe money, find out who owed money. And if you had any question in your mind, whether or not they had the ability to pay it, give them a call and ask them.” - Dan Henn
"If you like working with the IRS if you like to add extra money to your practice because you can make some really good money just on a small handful of cases. And the other thing that this lends to is we find that nowadays, because of regulations, because of the state of the IRS, because of a lot of different things, a lot of practitioners are staying in it a little bit longer in tax prep, then they probably wanted to, they're probably ready to retire and retiring with a handful of clients and working resolution. It's something that can be done remotely." - Dan Henn
"Mindset is the biggest thing, finding a coach, working with a coach, and being coachable because there's a difference between finding a coach and working with a coach. But if you're not coachable then it's not going to work." - Dan Henn
