Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
Integrity Moments is a 60 second workday devotional that provides business leaders with helpful insight into what the Bible says about our work and how we can fully integrate our faith into our vocational calling.

Greg was a new partner in a CPA practice when the Tax Reform Act of 1986 took effect. The tax changes were dramatic and created tremendous chaos and change for tax preparers.

At midnight on April 15th 1987, Greg remembers that their lobby was full of irate clients waiting for their tax returns, and Greg’s staff was all stressed from a long, frustrating tax season.

Greg later said, “What got me through that evening was that my senior partner was calm. His calmness allowed me to be calm, which led to our staff becoming calm as well.”

Proverbs 29:11 teaches, “Fools give full vent to their rage, but the wise bring calm in the end.”

When stress is running high in your business, your team will value your calmness.
