Employer Brand Wins for Accounting Firms: Trisha Daho
The episode of the Accounting Influencers Podcast hosted by Rob Brown features Trisha Daho, who talks about culture building, talent acquisition and retention in accounting firms. Daho explains that firms are struggling to find conventional talent to fill the needs of their growing businesses, and high performers are leaving early because they don't see the accounting space as an innovative career path. To address this, firms must create a culture of inclusion that provides a custom experience for each employee. They also need to develop an employer brand that is compelling, authentic, differentiated, and feeds into the client brand.
Daho emphasizes that firms must intentionally discover what makes them unique and different and what compels people to stick around. Firms must align their vision with their employees' to create a sense of purpose and meaning and focus on the onboarding experience to appeal to various people. To retain highly motivated employees, firms need to measure the impact of their leaders on their people and create a culture of open communication and mentorship that fosters growth and development.
