Course Outline

Introduction

Two types of leaders are evolving in public practice, the first with the experience and ability to drive compliance work efficiently and the second with the desire and interest to transition to a stronger advisory role with clients. Both roles are extremely important in progressive accounting firms.

Managers aspiring to take on partnership roles must be willing to work on all aspects of their role to add value to their clients, their team and their firm. What are your strengths? What areas of professional development do you need to focus on now to achieve your goals and targets? Do you have a path to partnership in your firm?

What’s this course all about?

This self-paced eLearning course outlines in a practical way the key leadership and management skills that managers and partners need to develop in order to achieve and exceed their performance goals.

This course begins by asking key questions about the learner’s current strengths in relation to workflow, team, clients and business growth. Your performance map will then provide a guide to the areas you need to focus on to achieve your potential as a manager or partner. Along the way, you will use your personal SMART action plan to map your development path.

The course consists of 4 stand-alone parts focusing on workflow, clients, team and growth.

Who’s it for?

This course is suitable for managers and junior partners keen to develop their leadership and management skills in relation to business growth, client relationships, workflow and team management.
