It cannot be argued that the most relevant achievements you need to become a CPA are the certification itself and a college degree. However, there are additional skills that would elevate your profile as an excellent CPA:

1.      Excellent Presentation Skills

As a CPA, the art of persuading and engaging your audience is key. Having a clear and compelling voice when you present information is critical to convincing clients and getting your point across effectively.

2.      Technical Abilities

As technology evolves in the world, so it must in the Accounting arena. This necessitates that CPAs have a comprehensive knowledge of the company’s software and technical systems.

3.      Emotional Intelligence

As in most career fields, it is important for CPAs to be compassionate and possess the interpersonal skills to connect with others and to understand their feelings.

4.      Leadership Skills

Good leadership skills are key to a CPA helping their client navigate an increasingly complex business world. Being decisive, having integrity and the ability to coach and inspire are all leadership attributes that make an effective CPA.
