Surefire ways to lose future leaders

As another class of accounting students graduate this month from universities around the state, profession leaders should reevaluate how they will engage with their new office colleagues. Telling war stories and complaining about change are just two of the ways that you can discourage fresh talent from continuing to work at your organization.

Here is the complete list from The Journal of Accountancy: 

• Infighting
• Being a victim
• Complaining about your firm's buyout
• Acting like you might sell
• Remaining silent about the path to partner and timing
• Minimizing the money
• Making partnership look like a hardship
• Resisting change
