[H3] Creating Belonging to Improve Staff Retention

Creating a sense of belonging is essential for strengthening recruitment, improving retention, and building high-performing teams—regardless of organisation size.
As conversations around Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) continue to evolve, organisations are also rethinking how to embed inclusive practices in ways that are constructive, authentic, and sustainable.
When applied effectively, the principles behind DEI and inclusive leadership help foster an environment where everyone feels valued and included. This sense of belonging drives stronger engagement, improves performance, and enhances both recruitment and retention outcomes.
For smaller organisations in particular, where scale alone cannot demonstrate diversity, inclusive leadership becomes even more powerful—helping to build strong team connection, camaraderie, and culture, even in fully remote or virtual environments.

[H3] Charting the Advisory Path: Lessons from the Inside

Many CPA firms are looking to expand into advisory services, but few have a clear view of what that transition looks like in practice. This session offers a candid, real-world perspective from inside a firm that successfully evolved beyond traditional compliance work while maintaining operational stability.
Led by a managing partner with firsthand experience building and scaling advisory services—and navigating that growth through acquisition—the webinar focuses on practical insights rather than theory.
Participants will gain a clearer understanding of how advisory services develop in reality, the cultural and operational challenges firms face, and how leadership, staffing, and pricing models must evolve to support higher-value client work without compromising core compliance revenue.

[H3] Succession Is No Longer a Relay Race – Leadership, Talent & Value Transfer at a Turning Point

Succession in accountancy firms has entered a new and more complex phase. Evidence from the AGN–Nexia World Congress in Munich, supported by comparative survey data from 2019 to 2025, points to a profession at an inflection point. While firms report moderate preparedness for digital and AI adaptation, leadership readiness, talent pipeline strength, and ownership appeal are weakening.
