The Controller's Guide: Roles and Responsibilities for The First Years Review
Steven Bragg is a totally insightful and unique accounting writer, and as usual, he provides a very interesting discussion with this text. For me, it both inspired me to seek to become a Controller - and at the same time, discouraged me from hoping to ever becoming one. He sets the bar very high! But if your current job title is Controller, you should probably buy this book, and get to work reading and implementing its recommendations immediately, even though you have practically no chance of incorporating even 20% of these suggestions.The main reason for my low "3" rating on the book is the weird and VERY problematic extra small font-size TEXT, which the author hopefully had nothing to do with. It must have been a publisher/cost savings nightmare idea gone terribly wrong! It is microscopic.
In the wording of a Steven Bragg "Best Practices" recommendations -
(too late to implement) *A better idea might have been to publish the 230 page book at a FULL 330 PAGES and increase the print size from the tiny 4Pt. to an industry standard and reader friendly 10Pt. type.
Reading this with a magnfying glass in one hand, like Sherlock Holmes, is an awkward process. It's elementary my Dear Steven.
