Reimagining Accounting: Tech, Trust, Value & Human Connection | Corinne Smith

Grounded, visionary, and refreshingly human. With Corinne Smith (Founder & CEO, Abby), we explore life, leadership, and business from the inside out - how innovation in accounting operations can actually amplify human value rather than replace it.Corinne’s story illuminated that true innovation isn’t about just speed and tech, it’s about freeing people to shine their brightest; do their best thinking, their most meaningful work, and their most human centred work. But ultimately to see the endless possibilities available when we create the space to do so.Through the Bee Formless™ Methodology, we explored:LEARN (Letting go)✨ Embracing change: navigating uncertainty through clarity, not control.✨ Looking beneath the brief: solving the real problem, not just the visible one.UNLEARN (Reimagine & reshape)✨ Reimagining accounting: how Abby simplifies complexity so humans can focus on creativity, connection, and trust.✨ Redefining confidence: why starting later in life is a strength, not a setback or too late.RELEARN (Test & implement)✨ Building relational business: long-term client connection through empathy and purpose.✨ Designing purposeful systems: where technology supports human judgment, not the other way around.ACTIVE RECOVERY (Reflect & reset)✨ Decision clarity: choosing based on subtracting from the mind, energy, values, and impact.✨ Adapting with grace: embracing pivots as part of the innovation process.About Corinne Smith:Corinne is the Founder & CEO of Abby (CheersAbby), an accounting-automation platform for Xero practices that streamlines financial statement and tax-prep workflows.
