]]> Accounting firms--like many other small businesses across the US--sent employees home to work when the Covid-19 lockdown began in the spring, as instructed by the government. Now businesses are slowing reopening. If your accounting firm is getting ready to reopen, bringing employees back to the office, the Rules of Thumb from MoneyThumb has some very sage advice from experts to help you make that transition and even build your accounting firm into a stronger organization than it was before the lockdown.

Of course, there are accounting firms that may choose to allow some employees to continue working from home. There are many employees who prefer this situation. In fact, a survey from Owl Labs reported that 80% of employees want to work from home at least some of the time.

The following advice for rebuilding your accounting practice in a post lockdown world applies to both scenarios for the employees of your accounting firm, returning to the office, or working from home.

Accounting Web has created this guide, Rebuild: An Accounting Firm Playbook, that is free to download.

Below is a list of what you will find in the playbook:

  • How newly fostered relationships with your clients will require a new kind of leadership from you, their advisor and partner
  • How to rebuild your client base, whether it’s with the same type of clients or if your focus should change, due to the effects of COVID
  • A new vision for the hybrid or virtual workplace, including considerations and budgets you need for remote access
  • New approaches to staffing and how to evaluate and find people with new skills
  • How to take on more from your clients without growing your staff costs

Right Networks has this free downloadable whitepaper titled Staffing and Managing Employees in a Post Lockdown World. In this whitepaper, find answers to the following questions:

• Should you risk opening your office again, and will work from home continue even after lockdowns end?
• What does the new world of remote work mean for how you find and attract new employees now and in the future?
• What kind of permanent changes to you need to make to accommodate remote work going forward?
