Former ATO assistant commissioner Colin Walker joins us in this episode of Accountants Daily Insider to provide a closer look at the inner workings of the Tax Office and how its "us versus them" approach has changed over the years.

Colin tells host Jotham Lian how he's transitioned from 45 years in the public service into a new role at the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers and what he intends to achieve in his new position.

He also explores what the future of the profession will look like, talks about what he thinks of the accountant and bookkeeper relationship, and shares some advice for up-and-coming talents joining the profession today.
