He has been a presenter for Wayne State University’s “Starting and Running a Profitable Small Business Workshops” and is a “Distinguished Faculty” for Lorman Education Services programs.
Unlike the traditional role of the CPA that focuses on recording past history, Greg’s view is that the future is where success or failure is determined. Dating back to his high school days he has always viewed the proper role of the CPA as a “doctor for small business”. He uses his analytical skills to check on the financial health of his client and if it is not completely healthy he prescribes treatments to fix the problems.
He believes that there is nothing new in business and the best way to avoid or solve any pitfall on the road to success is to learn from the experience of others. His sense of humor coupled with a dead serious willingness to say what his experience has taught can be both refreshing and shocking in this world of playing it safe and avoiding the tough truths.view less
