What do DUDE Wipes, Instagram influencers, and CPE podcasts have in common? They're all part of the new face of accounting and finance careers.
Adam Zaki from CFO.com recently featured me and my podcast co-host David Leary in an article challenging the notion that finance careers are destined for boredom.
The article showcases how finance pros are forging unique paths:
Entrepreneurship: Jeffrey Klimkowski left investment banking to co-found DUDE Products, now approaching billion-dollar status.
Social Media: CPA Jasmine DiLucci grew her family business by becoming a tax advice star on Instagram and YouTube.
Start-ups: David and I talked about Earmark, our CPE-through-podcasts venture, and why we wouldn't trade it for traditional CFO roles.
Work-Life Balance: I emphasized how much I value my current role's flexibility, allowing me to prioritize family time.
