May’s Reflections episode brings you a feast of honest discussion, expert wisdom, and plenty of relatable moments from the world of UK accountancy—co-hosted by Philippa Haynes and Mark Lee.
This month, our duo take stock of what resonated most from three standout guests, including Andy Smith, founder of Abbeygate Accountancy in Suffolk. Andy’s story is a masterclass in learning from mistakes and bouncing back—he didn’t just build a practice, he rebuilt it with smarter systems and a sharper sense of his value (after realising the first time around wasn’t quite a gold-medal run).
Here’s what’s in store for accountants in practice, wherever you are on your journey:
• Blueprint Thinking: Why codifying every step and service sets your firm apart, banishes inconsistency, and wins over clients with confidence.
• The Four Faces of Accounting Success: Discover if you’re a finder, minder, grinder, or binder—and why every successful practice needs a mix (spoiler: you can’t just grind and hope for glory).
• Growing Your Way: Whether your ambition is ‘small and mighty’ or you dream of a full-blown empire, learn how to set the right strategy, play to your team’s strengths, and avoid the dreaded “race to the bottom”.
Philippa Haynes and Mark Lee keep things practical, positive, and just a bit cheeky (in the best possible way).
Perfect for any accountant needing fresh perspective, tactical inspiration, or reassurance that even the best of us have to try, fail, and start again sometimes.
