Leadership Lessons and the Road Ahead This year marks 20 years since the founding of Beckley & Associates PLLC, and it’s a moment that gives me pause to reflect on the journey and what I’ve learned along the way. When Juliette Collin and I first started the firm, I never could have imagined the partnerships, growth, and challenges that would shape our team and the work we do for our clients. Over the years, one of the most valuable lessons I've learned is that leadership is about listening—listening to our clients, to our team, and to the changing landscape of our industry. Our role isn’t just about numbers; it’s about understanding the goals and values that drive the businesses we serve, so we can offer tailored, meaningful guidance. As we look to the future, the challenges keep us motivated. Changes in regulations, economic shifts, and evolving client needs require us to stay adaptable and forward-thinking. We’re committed to continuing our journey as a trusted partner, helping our clients navigate their financial futures with clarity and confidence. #Leadership #BusinessGrowth #BeckleyAndAssociates #CPA #20YearsAndCounting #FocusOnWhatMattersMost #Accountants #SmallBusiness
