The last few years have brought enormous changes to our country and to our accounting practices — much of it very difficult. New tax regulations, doing more with less, and job restructuring have left individuals and entire organizations reeling. As painful as these changes have been, organizations need to rapidly adapt.
Accounting Chaotics: Managing Organizational Change and Stress in a Turbulent Work Environment teaches accounting managers how to deal with change and stress. The accounting professional will learn how to best manage the changing work environment and the accompanying stress before it manages them in a negative way.
Ralph Waldo Emerson said that "The first wealth is health," but stressful careers are causing many of us to put our health at risk.
