Who's Really the BOSS?

Taking Vacation During Tax Season


Listen Later

Shawn Gubler of Kinexus CPAs shares how he transformed his approach to firm ownership by taking vacations during tax season, building meaningful partnerships, and creating systems that allow his team to thrive without him. He discusses the challenges of growing from $1-3 million in revenue, the importance of hiring people who will challenge you, and why giving more than you take has been the foundation of his success. Shawn also opens up about the value of one-on-one advisory relationships and how stepping back as an owner has actually improved client service and team development.
