(ii)Strategies to Communicate Complex Technical Issues to a Client A professional advisor will often advise their clients on a range of technical accounting and tax matters. However, in many instances clients do not possess the necessary financial expertise or technical accounting or tax knowledge to completely understand the information/advice provided by the accountant. Throughout your degree, you have acquired a range of technical and disciplinary skills that will serve you well when advising clients.
These clients will come from a variety of backgrounds and, in some cases, will not understand the ‘language and terminology’ that you would ordinarily use to explain (at times) complex technical accounting and taxation concepts. Required: Identify and explain three (3) strategies that you would adopt to simplify the content being delivered to clients. In other words, what strategies could you implement to simplify the financial advice provided to a client (like David and Jake) where they readily admit that they lack the necessary financial acumen to understand what you are saying?
