in this episode of move like this, jennifer harrity, director of sustainability at sensiba, talks about how b corp certification and esg (environmental, social, and governance) frameworks are reshaping accounting firms from the inside out. originally sensiba’s head of marketing, jennifer pivoted to lead the firm’s sustainability efforts after spearheading its b corp certification in 2018. this move led to the creation of a full-fledged esg practice that now supports clients in areas ranging from greenhouse gas (ghg) reporting to impact assessments and fractional chief sustainability officer services.

harrity explains that b corp certification is a rigorous third-party process that measures a company’s environmental and social performance, governance, and accountability. for accounting firms like sensiba, it not only served as a differentiator but also proved to be a powerful talent magnet. students and experienced professionals increasingly seek out values-aligned workplaces, and the b corp logo on a recruiting booth helped sensiba stand out, even against big four competitors. she emphasizes that the certification aligns naturally with many of the profession’s existing values, such as a commitment to employee well-being and community engagement.

when firms come to us to source an open position, they usually share a job description that looks solid. but when we get to the salary range they have in mind, it’s often way below what’s being paid in today’s market. that’s usually why they’re not generating as many good candidates as they hope.

how automation fails accountants

creates more work, not less.

by 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 research

automation in accounting is supposed to cut costs and boost productivity. but for many firms, it’s doing the opposite.
