That's why about 10 years ago, I started teaching them myself hoping that things could change. @Judith Coulson

Frustrating yet, it is exactly why my (and I suspect your) skills are required in the industry. Sawadee Krup, Jon D. Smith Well noted. I have faced this situation too many times to count.

I have been operating in this space for over 20 years, and am always keen to see if I can pick up any new perspective or approach to assist my clients with what I call 'strategic visioning'. I would be very keen to discuss this with you further. My very best regards. Anton. Hello Dr Kitipan Kitbamroong,

I thought that your commentary was quite interesting, but was hoping you may share some of your insights on how you have dealt with these issues with your clients.

I have been operating in this space for over 20 years, and am always keen to see if I can pick up any new perspective or approach to assist my clients with what I call ’strategic visioning’.

I would be very keen to discuss this with you further.

My very best regards.

Anton.

It can also be trained. But the training would start already in early ages. The fact that more and more people are not able to connect informations is starting in the family and in the education process the kids go thruth. Just learning facts and formulas but not knowing how to use them in real life, is and was for long an usual practice in educating people, especially in Asia. I started working a lot with pictures and drawings, if clients can visualise an idea, they are more likely able to make a decision. The problem with the CFO's is special. Accounants in Asia are probably more than any other profession very linear in their education. Just focussing on the blank numbers and the tax. Point out the tax benefit and he CFO will listen to you. Have a nice day Dear Kitipan
