Chris Bray on creating the tax business of the future

Chris Bray, Director of Bray Chan Chartered Accountants, participated in a panel discussion at The Tax Institute’s 2017 SME Symposium.

In this short video he speaks about creating the tax business of the future, and some of the topics covered in the panel session. The panel session 'Evolution or revolution' also featured Grant Thornton's Steve Healey, CTA-Life, and Michael Cox of PwC.

The panel looked at what's involved in creating the tax business of the future, the effects the future will have on changing both the client
and people experience, and asked what does embracing change and making a difference look
like?



On creating the tax business of the future, Chris says businesses need to “firstly understand what clients want. Secondly is consciously adapting the skill set within our businesses to be able to provide those solutions. Thirdly is having the technology to deliver those solutions. Fourthly I think most importantly, specifically in a small business like ours, where we're working with other small businesses, is to encourage our clients to come along for the ride.”
