Call Me Before You Do Anything: The Art of Accounting - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Lifelong learning is both a hallmark and a habit of a great professional, and a coda enshrined in official CPA standards. In "Call Me Before You Do Anything: The Art of Accounting," Ed Mendlowitz shares a lifetime of lessons learned – lessons in professional practice, and lessons in life and character. They are the lessons tax and accounting professionals are learning the hard way every day. But Ed has already learned those lessons and he shares them here, so others don’t have to. As he has through his life as a leader of the profession, Ed shares what he knows, what he thinks, and what he’s seen – with generosity, wisdom, and wit. A second-generation accountant himself, Ed started his education working for his father, “pushing the pencil,” as he might say, doing the hard work that teaches the fundamentals of solid professional skills and the standards of integrity and ethics that inform and inspire to this day. With candor and humor, we learn as much from Ed’s mistakes and setbacks as we do from his triumphs and achievements. We learn from the moment he got fired from one of his first jobs. And we learn from the time he won a highstakes deal for a client in an inter-continental negotiation that was fraught with brinkmanship and suspense. We learn from the people Ed learned from. And we learn how every day presents a new opportunity to learn to be better – a better professional, and a better person.
