Who's Really the BOSS?

Mastering Improvement Season


Listen Later

Rachel and Marcus discuss the critical period between April 15th and August 15th, which they call "improvement season" for accounting firms. They outline a structured approach to maximizing this time, starting with intentional rest and recovery, collecting team feedback while experiences are fresh, refocusing on core values, and refining processes and client relationships. They emphasize making hard decisions early during this period to test changes during extension season and set the firm up for greater success in the following year.
