In a speech to students and faculty at Texas Christian University in 1968, professor Howard Stettler shared the changes he anticipated in professional auditing practice by the year 2000, as well as in the professional who would provide these services. His stance was that the profession often took a backward-looking approach to facing changes in the economic and social climate. This article traces a brief history of the accounting profession, discusses whether Stettler's (and more recent) predictions came true, and offers perspectives on the current and future state of the accounting profession by a variety of stakeholders. It concludes with an overview of the implications for the profession.
