finding qualified staff is among the most significant problems facing the accounting industry, and the american institute of cpas is partly to blame, according to joel a. cooperman, chief executive officer of citrin cooperman & co., a new york-based accounting and consulting services firm with more than 650 employees.

“the aicpa does a very poor job promoting reasons why accounting can be a very exciting and very rewarding career,” says cooperman, who co-founded citrin cooperman in 1979 and has overseen the firm’s growth to its ranking of 22nd on accounting today’s top 100 firms list with $175 million in revenues during 2014.

beall and his leadership team first became aware of the need to internally cultivate leaders a few years ago, when, he recalls, “we looked at our employee base at the time and didn’t have a clear picture of who would be the next generation of leaders in our firm. this was a sobering reality.”

today, rea has a set goal of selecting beall’s replacement as ceo from an internal pool of candidates and committed to not looking outside for new leadership positions.

“if firms simply ignore the responsibility to identify and develop leaders within, the success, future and sustainability of these firms will be at risk,” beall says. he adds that leadership impacts most all of the other key practice management issues, including mergers and acquisitions, finding and retaining good workers, and meeting clients’ changing expectations.

“short-term, we need to make the profession cool,” he says. the “cool” in this case applies to the profession’s workforce. “a lot of it has to do with providing work-life balance for our employees, and that means more than just addressing their parenting or family issues,” he explains. “it also very much concerns meeting the needs of millennials and other younger-generation workers, whose concept of work and life in many cases is that they will work hard when that’s needed and expected of them, and then want balance for the rest of the time.”
