accounting influencers
with rob brown

in this edition of accounting influencers, four of the profession’s most prominent voices gather for a candid discussion on the challenges and opportunities facing the accounting world. from evolving business models to deep talent shortages, the conversation explores how firms must adapt—or risk irrelevance.

the panel includes randy johnston, co-founder of k2 enterprises and a long-time tech strategist for cpas; trevor greenway, ceo of interval, a software firm helping accountants uncover real-time advisory opportunities; harry blum, managing partner at rsm canada; and jennifer o’carroll, ceo of erp vendor hansaworld and former tax advisor.

“the knowledge is there,” says greenway. “the question is—do firms have the people and bandwidth to act on it?” he warns that while accountants understand the changes required—like the shift to advisory services and the adoption of ai—the labor shortage is the primary obstacle.

blum agrees, calling today’s environment “an experiment in change management,” where firms have never had more opportunity but also never faced more complexity. “the mindset shift needed to transform is the biggest challenge,” he says.

move like this

for 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间

in the latest episode of move like this, tricia bencich, inclusion and social responsibility associate director at moss adams, returns to the show to tackle a topic that resonated deeply with attendees of the 2024 move mini summit: mental load. with more than 1,000 attendees at her session alone, it’s clear that the idea of “invisible labor” is striking a chord, especially with women in the workplace.

more move

mental load, bencich explains, isn’t just about the physical tasks we perform but the cognitive effort involved in managing them. it’s not driving to the soccer game; it’s remembering the cleats, checking the weather, packing snacks, ensuring the uniforms are clean, and being an emotionally available parent – all before the car leaves the driveway. it’s this invisible, persistent, often unnoticed thinking and planning that women disproportionately carry. and, as she emphasizes, “mental load affects everyone, but research shows women continue to shoulder more of it, even if their partners work less or not at all.”

the disruptors
with liz farr

like many accountants, dominic piscopo, the founder of big4transparency.com, was frustrated by the lack of transparency in salary data. “i’d found it really, really frustrating trying to get good quality data on what to expect, looking ahead for my salary,” piscopo explains. before creating the platform, piscopo discovered his firm offered the lowest starting salaries in his city. by gathering compensation data from peers and presenting it to leadership, he secured “a little bit under a 10% pay bump” for his entire cohort.
