As a coach to Accountants & Bookkeepers I love talking to other coaches in this space too.
Here’s Episode 97 of my podcast series taken from my 101st 15 Minutes for Accountants & Bookkeepers LinkedIn Live Show which aired on LinkedIn on 13th December 2023.
Our guest today, Shane Lucas, opens up about his personal life, sharing the joys of a 25-year partnership with his wife, Jenny, and the exciting journey of parenting two world-champion kickboxers. Shane's purpose in life revolves around enabling lifestyle choices for people, a mission he actively pursues through his business and personal advancements throughout the years.
We talk about how he is the mastermind behind AVN, an organization that stands for inspiring accountants. Originally called the Added Value Network, AVN empowers accountants to envision and execute a more profitable, enjoyable, and impactful business model.
Shane shares his threefold mission of AVN: helping accountants run profitable businesses, empowering them to deliver effective advisory programs, and making a positive impact on a global scale, aligned with the United Nations Global goals.
We also talk about the discipline instilled through kickboxing, both in his past and in the lives of his champion kickboxing children. Drawing parallels between the principles learned in the martial arts world and the business realm, he highlights the importance of perseverance, resilience, and constant learning.
Delving into the heart of the conversation, Shane discusses the challenges accountants encounter at different stages of their careers. From the initial startup struggles to the scaling phase and eventual maturity, Shane provides a comprehensive overview of the obstacles accountants commonly face.
