Abstract
This paper uses an organizational science framework to evaluate the present status of the public accounting profession and make recommendations for a systematic process to influence long-term effective change. Historically, the profession has implemented short-term responses to environmental events such as corporate merger mania, globalization of the economy, or demographic changes in the workforce. This paper suggests establishment of a joint long-term effort among the Big Six firms as well as major national and regional firms to influence long-term changes to the way the profession manages its human resources, develops and maintains businesses, and operates as a legal entity.
