“In giving advice seek to help, not please, your friend.”
This pearl was delivered in the sixth century BC by the Greek politician, Solon. It is just as appropriate today because it speaks to the heart of the relationship between an accountant and his client.
No-one’s interests are served unless the advice is forthright and open. But to be effective it must come with experience and insight. Only then can a client receive information that will advance their interests – be they personal or commercial.
