We are proud to announce that our partner Elaine Pantel has assumed the position of Chair of the North American board of PrimeGlobal, effective June 1st.
Elaine has served on the North American Board for the past four years and the World Board for the past two years. Recently, in her role as Vice-Chair, Elaine attended the PrimeGlobal Northeast Sub-Regional Roundtable, where the group held discussions on high-level topics facing CPA firms and how we serve our clients.
These topics include:
- Growth. The Sub-Regional Roundtable always starts its discussions on this topic, going over organic growth ideas as well as other methods.
- People. The group discusses HR & Training incentive plans, accountability, manager to partner track, soft skill training, and leadership training. We also discuss culture best practices, trust and transparency.
- Practice areas. Covering such areas as Audit & Assurance; Quality Control; Artificial Intelligence tools available and what firms are using; Tax, such as consulting on new tax laws; and New service offerings (such as GDPR consulting & preparedness).
- Leveraging the PrimeGlobal network. We look for unique collaboration examples, as well as discussing cross referrals, and opportunities to leverage the resources of member firms.
