regarded as having value and available to meet debts,
commitments, or legacies.

"The speed of change makes you uncomfortable on a regular basis," he says. "That's so difficult for people who are paying mortgages, buying cars, trying to give their kids the things they had, to get them through school. You want to feel confident in the last 15 years of your career that ater 25 or 30 years of effort, it's just going to work," he says. "But it isn't so. And I don't think you ever get over the fear of not knowing.” – Doug Gould Ad Exec

The Research
A 2012 survey by the Corporate Execu,ve Board showed that 60% of organiza,ons were experiencing a leadership shortage, an increase of 40 percentage points from the previous year.
67% #1 issue is developing leaders & succession planning
www.blionline.org
Shift Happens
www.blionline.org
The high performers in our survey invest more in talent, focus on closing skills gaps, have more customized training and development programs, iden,fy future leaders earlier in their careers, and have robust succession plans in place. They also focus more on “sot” leadership skills such as the ability to embody the organiza,on’s culture and values and to lead effec,vely in a complex global business environment.

The Bounce
hQp://cpa.tc/2qh
T
Curriculum design by BLI and AICPA using Top 5 Competencies for future from CPA Horizons research and job levels from the BLI “Bounce” Model. Leadership and Communications were combined and the 5th category expanded to include practice specialties for firms and functional areas for corporate. Examples would include: Corporate Accounting, FP&A, divisional reporting, shared services, etc. CPA Firms would have audit, tax, industry specialties. These technical areas would have specific curriculums designed to meet their specific technical competency needs.
Innova,on & Accoun,ng
1. Create an innova,on mindset
2. Nurture crea,vity 3. Prepare the path to profit
4. Match metrics to the stage of development
5. Take a balanced view of risk across the porxolio

The collaboration curve is replacing the experience curve
“The organizations that will become the household names of this century will be renowned for sustained, large-scale, efficient innovation.
The key to that capability is neither company loyalty nor free-agent autonomy but, rather, a strong collaborative community.”
HBR, July-August 2011

Three Rules for Success
1. BeQer before cheaper (it's best to compete on differen,ators other than price);
2. Revenue before cost (priori,ze increasing revenue over reducing costs);
3. There are no other rules.
“In a period of rapid change and increasing complexity, the winners are going to be the people who can LEARN faster than the rate of CHANGE and faster than their COMPETITION.”
-‐ Tom Hood, CPA.CITP.CGMA
Average is over!
1. Think like an immigrant (Paranoid Op,mist)
2. Think like an ar,san 3. Think like an innovator (always be in beta)
4. Think like an entrepreneur -‐ Tom Friedman
