  • Using Big 4 Transparency for Better Compensation and Performance Discussions
    May 22 2025

    In Episode 67 of the Big 4 Transparency Podcast I’m doing a solo podcast talking about how I recommend leveraging Big 4 Transparency to lead to better discussions around pay and performance. A major benefit of having access to data that both the employee and employer can view is that it can lead to very objective discussions which will be far more productive and beneficial and aligning expectations and evaluating your performance relative to your compensation.

  • How to Layoff-Proof Yourself and Bounce Back Better
    May 15 2025

    In Episode 66 of the Big 4 Transparency Podcast I’m doing a solo podcast talking about layoffs and how to layoff proof yourself through networking. The number one piece of advice in this episode is that you can’t let yourself become siloed within your firm. You should be engaged in company culture, but maintaining a network outside of your firm at all times, and this will help you be far more resilient should you ever need to find that next opportunity.

    May 8 2025

    In Episode 65 of the Big 4 Transparency Podcast I’m joined by Nick Sinclair, founder of TOA Global, an outsourcing firm with over 4,000 employees. In this episode, we talk about how Nick started in the accounting industry, growing an acquired accounting practice 5x in 2 years, how he started TOA Global unintentionally, and why he initially picked the Philippines as a good market for accounting talent. We also cover how outsourcing and a future with AI is requiring us to change how we view junior roles in firms, as well as how to get the most out of your offshore talent by learning about their culture and making them a part of the team.

    In Episode 62 of the Big 4 Transparency Podcast I’m joined by Marcus Dillon, Founder and President of Dillon Business Advisors. His firm has done 15 M&A transactions, acquiring firms, and bundling out clients who are not a fit and selling them out to other firms to recover some of the acquisition cost - he was the first person I’ve heard ever talking about this strategy in-depth and it’s definitely one worth taking notes on.
