Ep. 63: Mind over bright lines — Tools for thinking outside the box

  • Summary

  • The busier we get, the more we tend to rely on bright lines to help us navigate the world around us. Easy rules to make work simpler. But as trusted advisers in a profession the public relies on, easy rules don’t always cut it for accountants. Sometimes, as Sarah Brack, CPA, says in this episode, you have to use that big brain in extraordinary ways.

    As our profession transitions from a rules-based approach to a more principles-based approach, the AICPA is here to help.

    Listen as we discuss the zeitgeist, the changing profession, and the help you can find in our ethics library when you need it.
