Dispelling the Myths
Michelle Pendergast joins us on the podcast today. I had the pleasure of meeting Michelle several years ago as part of the network panel that existed at the time, and she was immediately a force for dispelling the myths that surround accountancy and showing me and others that accountancy is not a one-size-fits-all. In this session, we discuss how you can get into accountancy, what it takes as a person, and dispel some of the stereotypes that exist. Send us Fan Mail
