This book addresses the considerations and factors that accounting professionals should take into account when pivoting from practice to higher education, think tanks, or other non-practitioner roles. Breaking down this transition, the book addresses issues connected to the types of job opportunities, where and when these opportunities might arise, and how any practitioner can reimagine their professional persona. Crafted from a first-hand perspective, the advice and anecdotes included throughout the book add a tangible and real-world feel to the concepts and ideas discussed in this book.
