Acknowledgments

I would like to acknowledge the commitment and dedication of Waymark Solutions staff members over the years it took to complete this project (Dean, Roydon, Matt, Louis and Jennifer) I thank my partner, Jennifer Gilchrist, and my children, Alexandra and Claudine who are so understanding during my absences which are so much a part being a writer and speaker.

I am grateful to Harry Mills, Matt Clayton, and Jeremy Hope for their “sage” advice over the years and to Sheck Cho for encouraging me to do this follow on edition from Paretos 80/20 Rule for Corporate Accountants.

My gratitude goes to Ian Niven, Wayne Morgan, Ken Lever, and Eon Black (all leading CFOs), Bill Cotton and, last but not least, all those accountants who have shared their better practices with me during workshops I have delivered around the world.

A special thanks goes to my parents, who encouraged all their four children to be independent and confident in their own endeavours. To all of the above mentioned people and all the other people who have been an influence in my life, I say thank you for providing me the launching pad for the journey I am now on.
