cpa firm staff: managing your #1 asset

“the delicate balance of mentoring someone is not creating them in your own image but giving them the opportunity to create themselves.” – steven spielberg

the existence of a mentoring program is a statement by the firm that it doesn’t want to leave the retention, development and success of its staff to chance. instead, the firm wants to be proactive about helping staff succeed and grow.

rosenberg survey
