Professional accountants in India and the world over can now look forward to working with the latest innovations of technology towards simplifying their work, thanks to the latest mantra of using technological advancement to overcome professional challenges; offered by the new book titled ‘The Digital Professional’ launched last night at Bengal Club in Kolkata.
‘The Digital Professional’ has been penned by eminent stalwarts of their individual field, Mr. Sailesh Haribhakti and Sanjib Sanghi.
The book deals with the impact of technology on the accounting industry. The writers have depicted an old school professional in the book who seems to be grappling with technology related problems due to a technical disconnect. The writers have tried to convey how crucial it is for a person nowadays to acquaint themselves with technology.
Speaking on how dependant the world has become on technology, Sailesh Haribhakti said “Our world is changing at a rapid pace. Even if we think back three years from now, we shall realize the alarming rate of acceleration of technology. The world has produced more data in the last two years than in the entire history of data gathering, which has enabled to tap the entire human race as a potential retail marketplace used by companies like Amazon, Flipkart, Netflix, Google etc.” He further added that technology has switched the world towards complete personalization which makes it imperative for professionals to make the switch towards technology aided professions.
Sanjib Sanghi added that the book is about the journey of a technologically challenged professional who initially struggles in his profession, is able to create a market for his/her services through the help of technology, starts to improvise towards optimizing his work, grow in his profession, starts meeting deadlines and is able to grow in his profession to a great extent which otherwise might not have been possible.
Any professional working in today’s age of technological advancement and dependence will be able to relate their own life and challenges faced by the character of the book and therefore this book is a must-read for professionals who are making an effort to stay ahead of the curve.
