Accountable Podcast: NEXT Practices — Not BEST Practices with Karl Ahlrichs

| , ,

When it comes to unclogging the CPA pipeline, Karl Ahlrichs (an HR professional and thought leader who’s also bilingual in accounting) doesn’t believe you  should emulate tried-and-true best practices. In a world that’s seemingly evolving at the speed of light, you should instead point your attention to what’s next — from hiring practices to upskilling the staff you have.

Episode Highlights

  • Defining ‘Best’ vs. ‘Next’ practices (03:33)
  • ‘Next’ practices as they relate to hiring (15:03)
  • Halting high-performer turnover (22:47)
  • How hiring the wrong people harms morale (32:02)
  • Given recent Great Recession data, does organizational loyalty still exist? (37:20)
