"Clearly, the companies that respond the quickest are the ones that are going to be most TRUSTED, most liked by their customer base".

(#99). Accounting and finance professionals work with numbers as well as people, and sometimes the situation with the numbers can cause difficult, stressful conversations. We hear from Allister Manson of Opus Restructuring LLP about tech, trust and transparency. He discusses how business and accounting professionals are integral to building trust – not just trust in financial information, but also trust in the integrity of the code and in the collection, retention and security of our data and personal information.

TALKING POINTS.

• How does an accountant or an auditor maintain the trust of a client in stressful situations?
• When trying to do the best for everyone involved, how do you make this clear when things can get difficult?
• How does one build trust when offering or supporting a service or technology that's new? 

OUR GUEST.

Allister Manson is a qualified chartered accountant and insolvency practitioner who heads the dedicated technology division for Opus Restructuring LLP, a UK-based national corporate services practice.

Currently the country's only technology specialist Insolvency Practitioner (IP), he has 20 years insolvency and restructuring experience, supporting businesses from start-ups to established software, hardware and tech service providers.

Allister previously worked at PwC, Smith & Williamson, and KPMG in the Cayman Islands.

"It's really important to not just develop a strategy and let it be. Make sure that you ACTIVATE that strategy."

(#97)  Strategy. One word, many definitions, almost infinite possibilities. What is it? What makes it work? Where do you start? During her time here at the Association, Jennifer Gardner recorded this conversation with Sil Garaventa, Director of Sales Support for US Foods in North Carolina. This is a high-level exploration of strategy: when a company has resource limitations, the team has to make choices around where to focus. At the heart of it, that's strategy.

OUR GUEST.

With experience at US Foods, the AICPA and elsewhere, Sil Garaventa is a strategy consultant who helps tackle an organisation's most critical and challenging problems, defining strategic direction in a disrupted and rapidly changing business environment. He's a frequent speaker and facilitator on the topics of corporate strategy, strategic planning, and culture and engagement. Connect with him on LinkedIn.
