Here’s Episode 41 of my podcast series taken from my 77th 15 Minutes for Accountants & Bookkeepers LinkedIn Live Show which aired on LinkedIn on 7 June 2023.
As you know, every Wednesday at 12:30 pm I talk to the wonderful people who help and inspire Accountants & Bookkeepers to make our community a fun place to be!!
This week my guest is Simon Chaplin
Simon is an advisor to Accountants in Practice, a keynote speaker, consultant, and accountant. His primary goal is to inspire, challenge, and support accountants to reach their fullest potential.
From a young age, Simon faced the challenge of dyslexia and encountered discouragement from his headmaster, who claimed that "nothing good will ever come of you." However, Simon was determined to prove him wrong. In 1993, he stumbled upon the accountancy profession and discovered his natural aptitude for it, despite not being academically gifted.
Throughout his career in accountancy and consulting, Simon has honed his abilities to help people in their businesses. He is driven by a strong aversion to seeing individuals uncomfortable or in pain due to their business challenges.
With his keen problem-solving skills, Simon strives to offer practical solutions and support to those in need.
Simon draws inspiration from his hardworking and successful grandfather, who dedicated long hours to his work. However, he also learned valuable lessons about achieving success without sacrificing one's entire life to work. Simon firmly believes that true success lies not in the number of hours worked, but in how those hours are utilized.
Motivated by his personal experiences and the desire to prevent others from enduring the same hardships, Simon is passionate about helping accountants and business owners unlock their full potential. Having faced the struggles of working hard, feeling stressed, and not receiving the desired outcomes, Simon understands the frustrations that many individuals in the field encounter.
His mission is to guide them out of those challenging situations and empower them to improve their circumstances.
