The Innovative Accountants

The Fractional CFO Show with Adam Cooper

In this episode, I’m thrilled to be joined by @David Adderson, the co-founder of @Youtopia, a premium cloud accounting service that helps simplify your finance department..

In this conversation, David and I explore how we can integrate technology into your client's workflows as an accountant and how to help make their finance operations simpler and more streamlined.

🌟 Some of my favourite parts were:

✅ How David’s holistic early career experience outside of accounts helped his view of using tech efficiently;

✅ How AI is shaping the accounting landscape not currently as Artificial intelligence but more as Automation Intelligence

✅ The shiny toy syndrome and the need to ensure you are fully utilising existing software rather than just bringing in more toys;

✅ How it is mindset management with the Finance Department or Business Owner that is the hardest part of introducing new technologies;

✅ How David trials new tools to ensure that any new tech is rolled out only if it makes life markedly better either on the Client or Youtopia’s workflows.
