Elliott assumed the AICPA chairmanship at the Institute’s annual meeting in Seattle in October. "I’m aware I’ll be in the chair when the digits ‘click over’ to the year 2000. I suppose that’s symbolic of the beginning of a new century or even a new millennium for the Institute and for the profession.” Elliott thinks this time of transformation - as exemplified by the CPA Vision Project - provides a good opportunity for people focused on the future to lead the profession. He says the changes will be dramatic - both for members and for the AICPA. Elliott’s resume reflects his forward - looking focus. He chaired the AICPA strategic planning committee and the special committee on assurance services. He also served on the special committee on financial reporting and the Auditing Standards Board. Elliott graduated from Harvard with a bachelor’s degree in math and earned an MBA in public accounting from Rutgers University. He joined the Philadelphia office of KPMG immediately thereafter and has worked for the firm for his entire career. Today he is a partner in New York City, a member of the firm’s office of the chairman and a trustee of the KPMG Foundation. For much of the Institute’s 112 - year history, Elliott points out, the speed of change wasn’t very great. The AICPA and its predecessors created enormous value for members by being "constant and steady, the profession’s conscience and ballast.” And the results have been spectacular. "We have a profession that is both highly regarded by the public and beneficial to our economy.” But Elliott says the days when the accounting profession could steer a steady course based solely on its traditions are past. “That doesn’t mean we give up the traditions, but the course we must steer requires greater organizational nimbleness than the Institute has had to demonstrate before.” Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini!
