Kaizen Life Consulting Happy to Provide Small USA Businesses Expert Bookkeeping Services with a Twist

Nov 7, 2022

November 07, 2022 - /PressAdvantage/ - Nampa, Idaho-based Kaizen Life Consulting Group is a 20-year-old American company that continues to expand nationally by offering quality business services that are nicely complimented by a more personable way of doing business. Bookkeeping is one of the key areas where the company continues to see high demand for its services across the USA.

The company’s lead consultant, senior bookkeeper, and founder, Kat McGowan, says, “Our focus here at Kaizen Life continues to be and always will be on serving our United States-based customers the right way. We serve businesses and individuals by teaching them to implement foundational principles that lead to life-changing results through our coaching and consulting. Our company truly believes in the power of subtle, sustainable, and effective changes to transform any type of small business. We are led by a dedicated team of financial experts that find fulfillment in helping our client businesses reach financial freedom by taking advantage of our bookkeeping, payroll, and budgeting assistance services. As we help our clients manage some important financial aspects of their businesses, we also strive to encourage a friendlier and more relaxed working atmosphere between us.” She added the latter is something that they at their company like to think of as complimenting quality business services with a pinch of personality and fun just for good measure. It’s that little extra something that she feels helps brings Kaizen Life together with small service-based businesses and small to medium-sized firms and leads to mutually beneficial long-term working relationships being forged between them.

The company’s founder acknowledged that bookkeeping is one of the first and most essential of the Kaizen Life bookkeeping services that they offer to businesses and individuals. It’s also a core business task for even the smallest of businesses that must be done right; something that’s not easy to do given all the nuances that go along with it. Their clients recognize this and that’s why they are so eager to work with her and her team of experts in the field. When a business hires Kaizen Life to handle routine business functions such as bookkeeping, it frees up owners and managers to spend more time helping to grow other core areas of their business.

The company prides itself on avoiding one-size-fits-all bookkeeping services too, as they will develop a tailor-made bookkeeping plan for each client. She also emphasized they are made up of team members from all parts of the USA and that allows them to offer their bookkeeping service to businesses in all 50 states. Their staff members enjoy traveling to meet small business clients and entrepreneurs so they can introduce them to the unique way that Kaizen Life does business. This applies to their financial services as well as their coaching & consulting services. McGowan stated that their bookkeeping, payroll, and coaching services have proven to be a great fit for businesses that have a strong desire to succeed and grow.

Businesses and individuals that have taken advantage of the bookkeeping services the Kaizen Life Consulting Group offers often leave very positive reviews about that working relationship. Adam Blakesley stated, “Working with Kat and her team taking care of my bookkeeping has been a lifesaver. Where I was spending 10 or more hours a month on bookkeeping on top of working, Kat has cut that in half! I didn't enjoy the nitty-gritty details of the bookkeeping, and this has freed me up to spend more time bidding on jobs and spending time with my family as well! The coaching sessions have also been amazing and have added value and structure to my company. I would highly recommend Kaizen Life Consulting Group for all bookkeeping and coaching services!” Steadfast Builders states, “Working with Kat and the team at Kaizen Life has been exceptional. Their expertise in bookkeeping and business operations has been an invaluable service. We recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch bookkeeper and we'd give them more than five stars if we could!”

McGowan invites those that would like more information on their bookkeeping and other business services to check out their website or refer to the Kaizen Life Facebook Profile.

What to consider if a company that made AI-related job cuts wants you back

What to consider if a company that made AI-related job cuts wants you back

NEW YORK — Companies around the world are increasingly citing artificial intelligence when slashing jobs, fueling anxiety that a lot more workers may lose their livelihoods to machines. Microsoft, Barclays Bank and supermarket chain Kroger are among the latest entries on a growing list of companies that have announced AI-related workforce reductions this year, including the elimination of jobs deemed redundant or shed to free up money for investing in the technology. But the job cuts of the AI era, which are affecting tens of thousands of people, occasionally have an epilogue. Some companies, after discovering that AI models, applications and agents don't perform as well as expected, end up rehiring laid-off workers to fill eliminated positions. It's unclear how common such reversals are, but they are happening often enough to acquire a nickname: the "AI boomerang." "Two years ago, we said, 'Would this happen?' and now we're saying, 'Yes, it is happening in real time,'" said Lucy Beaumont, a global senior vice president at SHL, a U.K.-based technology company that develops employment-related tests and tools. Hiring managers in fields including finance, marketing, law and health reported earlier this year that their companies had eliminated positions primarily because of AI or automation, only to hire again for the same or similar roles, according to recruitment and staffing firm Robert Half. The most frequently cited reasons for restoring dropped jobs included the technology needing more human oversight than anticipated and its inability to replicate institutional knowledge, the firm said. "When you need critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, institutional knowledge, those are things that AI just can't replicate," Bill Driscoll, a senior district president at Robert Half, said. "And I think that's where companies are starting to realize, 'Wow, we really do need people to do these jobs.'" Klarna, the Swedish provider of buy now, pay later services, began recruiting human customer service representatives again last year. CEO Sebastian Siemiatkowski acknowledged in an interview with Bloomberg News that the company's reliance on an AI chatbot to cut costs had gone too far. In June, Ford said it had hired or promoted 350 veteran engineers after AI tools the automaker deployed to do quality control work did not perform at the expected level. "AI utilization has been an important part of our quality gains and that — along with deep technical expertise of our teams — is a powerful combination," a Ford spokesperson told The Associated Press. However, companies don't always broadcast their U-turns on shifting resources or responsibilities from employees to AI systems, Beaumont said. "Maybe their shareholders love that they did this right-sizing motion... and then they have to turn around and quietly, with their tail between their legs, admit that they weren't ready for that or they shouldn't have done that," she said. Management experts offered employment advice for workers as companies make greater use of AI tools and consider — or reconsider — their staffing needs while assessing the technology's capabilities. Rehiring suggests the invisible work of humans is not easily replaced When companies use AI to perform tasks previously done by people, they often miss the invisible work employees do beyond their formal job descriptions, said Betsy Summers, a principal analyst on the Future of Work team at market research and advisory firm Forrester. That might include sensing emotions and moods, holding impromptu meetings and putting in extra effort when feeling inspired or otherwise motivated, Summers said. "We don't know all the work that's required to do things well within the organization," she said. "The citizenship behaviors of team cohesion and team building and making sure that you have trust within your team, none of that is accounted for. So when you rip out humans who are doing that work and then expect agents to be able to then deliver exactly what humans have delivered, they are frequently mistaken." Another factor that complicates assigning more work to AI-powered tools is that company procedures for tasks such as data processing and bookkeeping are not always well documented, experts said. "Organizations are not spending enough time doing the up-front work to really truly understand workflows and where humans add value in the process," said Brooks Holtom, a professor of management at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business. In roles such as customer service, AI agents and chatbots frequently need to refer questions and complaints to a worker who can recognize emotions, assess the severity or complexity of a problem and respond creatively within established policies, Holtom said. "It's that combination of creativity but staying in the guardrail that's really hard for a machine to figure out," he said. Figure out what gives you a competitive edge as a human As companies redirect resources toward AI, current employees and those asked to come back might want to emphasize skills that complement the technology, such as emotional intelligence and sound judgment, Holtom said. "Really try to be able to articulate, what's your value proposition as a human?" Holtom said. "Don't be afraid to lean into the technology as well, and understand how to differentiate yourself from what machines do well. Embrace that, understand that, and you can become uniquely qualified to help with implementation." Empathy is a human quality that technology has not fully mastered, Beaumont said. "Think about an angry customer. They want to be listened to, they want to be heard, they really want a human on the other end of the line," Beaumont said. "Can an AI replace that right now in a way that feels meaningful to individuals? Perhaps not." Know your leverage and use caution if you're asked back Many people are understandably reluctant to return to a company that laid them off as part of a reorganization around artificial intelligence, according to Beaumont. "To come back to a business where you've been let go, replaced by AI, to be asked back to that business, your trust is gone, your psychological safety there, your relationship with the employer, and that's very, very difficult to build back," she said. Workers offered their old jobs back are asking for more money and to know how AI might impact future staffing, Beaumont said. Requesting additional training and a clear explanation of your opportunities for advancement could be part of the discussion, she said. Communicate ways you would contribute value as a returning employee, outlining a new job description "that leverages the technology but also your expertise," Holtom said. You could end up in a higher-ranking position that pays more than the one you left, he said. Before accepting an offer, seek a commitment such as a one-year renewable contract that includes a buyout clause if the job is terminated in less than a year, Holtom suggested. Don't discount the distinctly human values of motivation and curiosity, which make people efficient and effective, Summers said. "Within our societies, work serves a broader purpose than just creating value for shareholders or customers or constituents," she added. "Work serves a human purpose as well. It's the manifestation of our search for meaning and purpose. We want to contribute to our communities as human beings."
