Features: We firmly believe that consulting education for managers and accountants is crucial. Accountants can apply many consulting skills and knowledge to traditional tax and audit work. Audit and tax services also frequently require various types of "advice." Currently, many accounting students take on consulting jobs upon graduation, making accounting an excellent foundation for a career in consulting. In this book, we describe many unique consulting services that accountants prepare to offer. It can help accounting students develop their consulting and other skills, making them attractive candidates for consulting firms. There has been a significant increase in commercial consulting and advisory positions available to accounting graduates. Accounting educators should design accounting department curricula based on the recommendations of the AICPA and the Institute of Management Accountants, cultivating students to become business consultants and advisors. This book will be of interest to university faculty with the resources to develop such courses. It is a newly published work on the consulting industry, particularly addressing the various pressures and opportunities faced by consultants in the accounting field. The book provides detailed insights into essential consulting skills, marketing, developing, and managing consulting projects, consulting processes, and special issues in accounting consulting. It is highly suitable for a wide range of professionals engaged in accounting consulting services.
Target Audience: Accountants, auditors, managers, professionals in related fields, researchers, and faculty and students of accounting programs in colleges and universities.
