Key takeaways from this episode include:

✦ the origins of ProNation to provide a better way of mentoring and coaching accountants than the 'one guru one way'

✦ where some accounting coaches and mentors lose credibility, particularly if they haven't actually ran their own accountancy practice

✦ what stops accountants sharing and being collaborative, even if they're in the same community of mastermind group

✦ the importance of battle scars, wounds and failures in accountancy mentors who have actually been down the road other accountants want to travel

✦ the problems accountants create for themselves by being information gatherers without taking action
