Hannah and Joey are joined by Cory Gayman, Owner and President of JCG CPA Firm, to break down the intricacies of remote work in the accounting industry. They explore the dual-edged nature of remote work, discussing its challenges, such as communication and trust-building, alongside its benefits, like flexibility and work-life balance. The conversation also covers the adaptation of services for virtual environments, the significance of outcome-focused management, and the impact of remote work on recruitment and retention.
“People are not black and white; they are nuanced, with different needs and communication styles. I really try to teach my managers and leaders that you have to learn how to communicate, not just say what you want and then move on. This is especially important in a remote environment.” -Cory Gayman
