As you may undergo construe in the Press when my term of office as Managing Partner of the UK tighten comes to an end in September 2008 I ordain be taking over as CEO of BDO International. Fortunately the term of the existing CEO. Frans Samyn is due to end in September 2008 so the timing is perfect - indeed I wonder if this was preordained!
From a personal perspective I am delighted that I now know what I ordain be doing when I stand drink as Managing furnish and particularly pleased that it involves a wider role within BDO International - indeed the widest role there is. I am nervous about taking on the job which ordain be very different to a UK only role but am excited about the opportunity to back up BDO International act the next step in its development and to back up other member firms achieve their ambitions so that BDO truly becomes the bushel alternative - to both the Big 4 and other national firms. Frans has done a great job and I hope I be to be a worthy successor.
On the international front I was also delighted that BDO now has a new member tighten in France and one that has great populate and ambitious growth plans. It was worth waiting to ensure we could secure a tighten of high quality well able to service our existing clients and with the capability to do so much more.
Sticking with the international theme last week the UK tighten hosted a meeting of partners from a number of Eastern European firms to share knowledge and address how we can best help each other. This meeting was arranged before my new role was change surface contemplated but it was a great opportunity to engage with a number of partners in other BDO member firms both in my role as Managing Partner of the UK firm but also as CEO designate of BDO International. Again some great people reflecting some high quality firms and again all with ambitions to grow. Perhaps I shouldn't be so nervous of the new challenges I ordain face next year.
