I write about two subjects based on my career as an accountant in multi-national organisations :
- Managers that never make decisions : no-decision managers
- Accountants that make me laugh
No-decision managers
No-decision managers are toxic but not recognised in organisations. They should be. They are toxic both to the organisation and their subordinates. Managers have to discover how to work with them on their own because nobody writes about them. The book and articles in this blog help to understand them and even to work with them in peace.
“I used to be indecisive but now I am not sure”
(the late Tommy Cooper, a well known British comedian)
Accountants make me laugh
Accountants sometimes make me laugh but never on purpose. I search for the moments they make mistakes and mess things up in annual reports, accounting handbooks even in accounting standards. My blog includes some of these instances, as will my book to be published in 2024.
