46. Stop, Collaborate, & Listen | with Rebekah Brown

Everyone talks about the importance of collaboration, but what does it really mean? Working together? Teamwork? Sharing ideas? It’s one of those things that’s hard to define, but we know it when we see it. And because of that, it’s something that everyone defines differently.   But here’s the thing – every list of the most crucial future-ready skills for our profession includes collaboration. Every single one. So we have to figure out a definition that everyone can embrace.   And here to help us figure that out is Rebekah Brown, the director of development with the Maryland Association of CPAs and a thought leader with the Business Learning Institute. She is as passionate and optimistic about the future of accounting and finance as anyone I know, and she has seen first-hand how powerful collaboration can be within our ever-evolving profession, particularly among our younger professionals.   To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit blionline.org/blog.   Resources: Start mastering Future-Ready skills now at MACPA.org/future-learning LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebekahbrown Read: “Human skills need to sharpen to coexist with machines” Future-Proof is produced by Podcast Masters
