Contributing Author Lynda Steffens

Lynda Steffens is an accountant, author and introvert—three things she is very loud and proud about. Founder of The Small Business Project, author of Accounting Revolution, and with 30+ years of industry experience, Lynda is transforming the way accountants connect with clients. She developed her advisory training as a result of seeing her peers overwhelmed, undervalued, and simply burned out. The Small Business Project supports accountants in building the confidence and capabilities they need to lead successful advisory first practices.
