Advance Praise for Accountaneur(r)
"Accountants need to be more than just accountants and Hitendra creates a way for accountants to look at themselves. He calls it the Accountaneur(r). This book contains a great deal of new thought about what accountants should be doing. It is a required read for all professionals, partners, and non-partners. Leaders at accounting firms have a huge responsibility to create a business environment conducive to growth and achievement, not just at their firms, but especially for their clients. Hitendra brings a perspective that helps accounting firm leaders find answers to key questions that will lead to entrepreneurial achievement." - August J. Aquila, CEO, AQUILA Global Advisors LLC, consultant to professional service firms, author, and speaker.
"What impressed me the first time I met Hitendra is his drive to help others reach their potential. This book does just that. You will learn and appreciate what an important role the accountant plays in our business and personal lives. Hitendra makes the profession come alive. If you are in the accounting profession, or thinking about it, you must read this book!" - Chester Elton, New York Times best-selling author of "The Carrot Principle," "All In," and "What Motivates Me"
"Entrepreneurs create wealth and opportunities for others. Entrepreneurial accountants make it possible for entrepreneurs. Accountaneur(r) is a probing question bank for accountants who want to be entrepreneurial." - Allan D. Koltin, CPA, CEO, Koltin Consulting Group Inc.
Are you an Accountaneur(r)?
Think different.
Taking a cue from several research studies across different professions and industries that identify traits, strengths, talents, skills, values, and beliefs, we identify the most common attitudes and beliefs of successful accountants who can be deservedly called as entrepreneurs in the true sense of the word.
An Accountaneur is an entrepreneur whom, with considerable initiative and risk, organizes and manages a business that provides tax, accounting, and advisory services to solve problems for people, for profit, or, for pay, by employing productive labor and technologies. So, the difference between an Accountaneur(r) and an accountant lies in his or her traits, strengths, talents, skills, values and beliefs.
There are three types of people in the professional world. Those who work for others, i.e. in a job. Those who work for themselves, i.e. who create a job for themselves. And those who create jobs for others. An Accountaneur(r) either works for him or herself or is the one who creates jobs for others in the tax and accounting profession.
Are you an Accountaneur(r)? If you work for yourself or if you have created jobs for others in the tax and accounting profession, you are an entrepreneur, rather an Accountaneur. You are an Accountaneur if you chose not take up a job, but chose instead to create a business.
