By doing so, accountants can elevate their value and shake off the shackles of being seen as interchangeable entities, paving the way for a more fulfilling and prosperous profession.Adam Lean is a dynamic individual with a background as a former accountant turned successful entrepreneur, having built, scaled, and sold two businesses.
