In Episode 21 of the Big 4 Transparency Podcast, I am joined by Tina Teodorescu, founder of Talent Edge Advisors, and former Chief People Officer in various accounting firms.

Firm leadership is generally concerned about people no longer being as motivated by the traditional partnership model, and how difficult it has become to attract and retain strong accounting talent given the accounting talent pipeline crisis and the lack of distinguishing factors beyond compensation for many employers to compel talent to stay at their firm.
