Introduction
No one can live in isolation as none of us is self-sufficient.

This is why man is referred to as a social being.

Social interaction breeds conflict as our varying interests
and personalities begin to clash in our competition for
scarce resources and pursuit of our goals.

Our pursuit of success is largely a function of its relation to others within the society.

Every human is caught up in this drive for success.

All professions are covered in this regard, including the
accountant.

Every accountant seeks to rise on the ladder of his career
and get to the peak.

That, even, is the motivation while you were tenacious in
your desire to become a chartered accountant, despite the rigors ICAN exams come with.

An Accountant helps businesses make critical financial decisions
by collecting, tracking, and correcting the company's finances.
They are responsible for financial audits, reconciling bank
statements, and ensuring financial records are accurate
throughout the year.

Often times, the professional accountant is seen as a person that
sits in a corner, only occasionally speaks to the client, and later
produces a report (Terblanche 1998).

The accountant is not one to have minimal contact with primary
and secondary stakeholders. On the contrary, he is always
interfacing with them.

The accountant is always in the business of communication and
thus would interact with others. Hence, there is the need to learn emotional intelligence.
