Consultants sometimes get a bad rap, but a good consultant-client partnership can be transformative. What makes the difference? Kellen Smith is the CEO of 8020 Consulting, a finance and accounting firm named after the 80/20 rule for getting outsized results. Kellen and Shawn discuss how curiosity, emotional intelligence, and over-communication make for impactful engagements, how finance and accounting can be a framework for driving change across your business, and the transformation of CFOs into "CFOOs".
