ABOUT THE AUTHOR

During a varied career exceeding thirty years, Scott Charlton has worked at two of the biggest international professional firms, commenced the world’s smallest accounting practice, and has been one of three principals in an aspiring CBD partnership. Scott has also changed occupation several times, had a career break, and faced the challenge of being “between jobs.” During this time Scott has worked from home and in CBD offices with stunning views. He has also toiled in soul-less broom cupboards, owned commercial premises, and been a “road warrior.”

A chartered accountant by background, Scott ran his own practice for many years in a leafy Brisbane suburb before merging with two other practitioners to create a firm in the CBD. Throughout this period Scott specialised in advising a range of professionals in practice including health professionals, lawyers, and consultants.

Since leaving his accounting firm, Scott has focused on business coaching. Scott’s particular interest in coaching stems from his personal mission to help others achieve their potential. In the past ten years Scott has worked with the owners and team members in over three hundred accounting and financial planning firms. This work has taken him all over Australia and to New Zealand.

Scott is currently Head of Strategic Development at Fortnum Financial Advisers, a financial planning group dedicated to client first solutions.
