If AI can deliver the outputs, why would clients still pay for the accountant?
Allan Koltin, CEO of Koltin Consulting Group, joins Kacee Johnson to explore how accounting firms must evolve from service providers to value creators in a rapidly changing landscape.
They also explore:
- Why firms heavily dependent on compliance may see revenue decline
- Private equity is moving from large firms to mid-sized and even smaller firms
- Why the “talent shortage” may solve itself as the nature of work shifts
- Many firms are held back by partnership models that can’t make fast or tough decisions
