PA-34 power setting sequence

Hello there,
I have just started flying on a multi engine Piper Seneca V and recently I've been having a discussion with my instructor about engine power setting for the climb. In all manuals it is advisable to retard the throttles first and only then to decrease the RPM. However, my instructor has been insisting to decrease the RPM before adjusting the manifold pressure. The rest seems to be alright. Could anyone help please? Is there a possibility that my instructor might be wrong?
