Amid all the worries about staffing shortages and succession issues; amid the din of doomsayers prophesying disintermediation by blockchain, artificial intelligence or worse; amid the clamor of ever-more demanding staff and clients; amid the tightening competition from within the profession and without; amid the endless pressure to keep up with changes that keep coming faster and faster and never seem to let up — in the midst of all that, it’s good, from time to time, to reflect on all that’s going well for the profession.
Since we here at Accounting Today do our share of sharing the scary news, it’s only appropriate that we sometimes use our various platforms to remind everyone, from entry-level to emeritus, of just how good a time it is to be an accountant.
