the 8 mega trends every cpa needs to understand before 2026

what happens to accountants when ai agents run the economy.

by 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 research

for most of the past decade, “digital transformation” meant faster systems, better dashboards, and incremental automation layered on top of human decision-making. by 2026, that framing will no longer hold.

the defining shift now underway is not simply more technology, but who—or what—executes economic activity. across finance, operations, compliance, and professional services, autonomous systems are moving from support roles into execution roles. software is no longer just informing decisions. it is initiating them.

more on artificial intelligence

that transition is reshaping how work is done, how risk is distributed, and how trust is established. it is also quietly repositioning the tax and accounting profession—from recordkeeper and reviewer to certifier of machine-driven outcomes.

卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 believes eight mega trends will define 2026—not as isolated developments, but as a converging system change. read more →

commitment to transformation is key

every year, the 2025 rosenberg map survey asks the industry’s top consultants to share their observations from cpa firms across the country: how do you think the next 12 months will unfold? trends? predictions? other thoughts? also, how would you assess the last 12 months? trends? observations? struggles?

trade static succession plans for leadership development ecosystems.

by angie grissom
the rosenberg survey

as we look ahead, i believe the next 12 months will continue to test our industry’s willingness to evolve. the firms that thrive will be those that move with clarity, courage and commitment to transformation and those that are ready to take the first step even if they are unsure of how to transform. the key is to move.

more: the 2025 rosenberg map survey is available from 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 here.

key predictions include:

  • reinvention will no longer be optional. firms must rethink how they work, whom they serve and how they deliver value. this includes segmenting clients, eliminating low-value engagements and designing service models that align with client roi – not just hours worked. this is rewarding for everyone involved.
  • talent strategies must evolve. with changing workforce expectations, firms will need to adopt agile leadership models and invest more deeply in career pathing, mentoring and inclusive leadership development. retention and engagement will hinge on leadership’s ability to connect with people, especially emerging leaders – on a personal and purposeful level. purpose is key here.

accounting voices
with rob brown

the accounting profession does not suffer from a lack of technical expertise. what it faces instead is a growing relevance gap.

that tension sits at the center of accounting voices, the newly launched show formerly known as accounting influencers. episode 1 opens a new season with a sharper focus and a clearer message: competence is assumed, but influence is what now protects careers.

this is not a podcast about tax codes, audit standards, or software features. it is a show about the forces reshaping accounting and finance—and what professionals must do to stay ahead as those forces accelerate.
