Podcast: Leading with purpose and passion
New AICPA Chair Lexy Kessler — a partner at Aprio, a former chair of the Maryland Association of CPAs, and now the third Marylander to chair the AICPA’s board of directors — brings insight, inspiration, and a powerful sense of purpose to this week's "Future-Proof" conversation.
Kessler shares how a high school bookkeeping class sparked her career, why she has always been an early adopter of technology, and how a short break from public accounting reaffirmed her calling.
Now in a national leadership role, she is focused on deep listening, building trust across the profession, and addressing the talent pipeline with both policy and heart.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking renewed purpose and direction in the profession. Check out the conversation in its entirety.
