In the October 1987 CPA Journal, David McThomas, former executive director of the International Group of Accounting Firms, presented research on the most important attributes that a managing partner of a CPA firm should possess (“Leadership and the Attributes of Managing Partners”). This study was particularly intriguing, given that accounting is a very specialized industry whose professionals must exhibit a great amount of technical ability in their craft. What we have found throughout the profession is an abundance of training on technical aspects, with very little focus on developing the skills to run the firm from a leadership perspective.
