About Humanise The Numbers - for ambitious accountants in practice

Welcome to the 'Humanise The Numbers' podcast series. Here you'll find a whole series of interviews with the leaders of accounting firms who are building (or have already built) a firm of the future now! You'll hear key insights, key skills and key habits that underpin the success of these firms. Insights, skills and habits that can underpin your firm's future success too. It seems that when an accountancy firm connects their team and their clients to the numbers that really matter to them they transform the results for everyone. This is accelerated when the humanity of the way they work shines through too. That's why we're talking about ambitious accountants humanising the numbers.Here's what a director of a multi-partner multi-national firm said recently ."What I like about your podcasts is that they are real. They are not scripted and I appreciate the fact that your interviewees admit they don’t have all the answers but are willing to let you put that fact out on a podcast. It is what is going on at the front lines of great small accounting practices. I have now listened to about half of them, I intend listening to them all as each one just has a nugget that I am writing down to see if I can use in our practice at some stage."

   Ian Cooper, Head of UK region & growth at FYI

   Who’d have thought that document management could be sexy and interesting? In this podcast with Ian Cooper of FYI Docs, Ian, by his own admission, does tell us that doc management isn't really that sexy, but it did make for an interesting podcast. Ian and I talked over a range of subjects, not least the inevitable rise of AI and the accelerating pace of technology. I especially appreciated Ian's views on how AI can help the accountant with the human side of their business. T...
