From the start, their vision was to be more than just another company of NZ-based chartered accountants. By adopting the attitude that accounting is more about people than numbers, the firm grew to where it is today.
"Quite often when Stephen is heading away on annual leave to other regions, he will pop in and check on his clients who are on the way (e.g. when travelling to Wellington, he will pop in and see clients in Palmerston North) - even though he is technically 'off the clock'."
