RSS feedsThis month, Best Practice - Accountancy Age's monthly supplement for smaller practices and their clients - meets QX finance director, Chris Robinson.
Robinson is determined to rid outsourcing of its 'cheap option' stigma and explains the irresistible lure of the Indian work ethic. For Robinson, the key to success lies in persuading people that if routine jobs can be done cost-effectively elsewhere, their own jobs can develop along more fruitful lines.
Elsewhere, we look at the benefits of business mentors; how to push your clients' business to the max; why it pays to go green at work; how to create a buzz around your firm to attract the best candidates; how to create a friendly workplace and not let disruptive people dictate how you run your firm.
And in our advice section, we take on Walker & Wikeley's Veterinary Surgery and much, much more.
Enjoy the February - and our website.
