About Some Webcasts

Over the next few months I will be delivering some webcasts that are aimed mostly at accountants. However, most of the material is applicable to all knowledge workers and professionals.The webcast belong to one of two series: Tax Free Tuesdays and $5 Fridays. As you might guess the Tuesdays sessions are free, while the Friday sessions will cost you $5.Here are the details of the first three sessions:

• Friday, February 28 at 1:00pm ET - Creating Strategy in a Small Firm - This session will be dedicated to the possibility that even small firms can create and execute meaningful strategic plans. Creating a well defined strategy is hard work and not for everyone, as it requires us to begin to say "no" to stuff we usually say "yes" to. You are hereby invited to open a dialogue about how best to go about creating a strategy for your small firm.
• Tuesday, February 25 at 1:00 pm ET - Top Ten Business Myths - This session is dedicated to the possibility that many myths exist about business and it would be better to rid ourselves of these ideas. Thinking about these myths is hard because it requires us to examine some of our most deeply held beliefs and either dismiss them or at least think differently about them. If you are interesting in having a conversation about business myths, you are invited to attend this session.
• Friday, March 7 at 1:00 pm ET - Introduction to the Professional Knowledge Firm (aka Firm of the Future) - This session will be dedicated to the possibility that a professional organization can be run more effectively when it becomes a knowledge firm rather than a service firm. Creating such an organization is hard work and not for everyone. It requires us to think differently than we have in the past about what it is that we do. You are hereby invited to open a dialogue on a different model for creating and capturing value in a professional firm. We will explore two business models: the firm of the past and the firm of the future. We will also begin a conversation about the four transformations that need to occur in order for firm to make the transition successfully.
