Lost in the holiday hubbub was an announcement from BDO USA that it had promoted 60 professionals to principal, the first such milestone since the top six accounting firm ditched the traditional accounting firm partnership model to become a professional services corporation last July.
“Congratulations to each of the new principals on this significant milestone,” BDO USA CEO Wayne Berson said in a statement. “These individuals have built careers on helping people thrive, serving as leaders, mentors, and advisors. I look forward to watching them contribute to the growth and success of the firm, their clients, and their communities for years to come.”
