Career intelligence for pilots.   We break down executive moves, economic forces, and the technology reshaping how pilots are trained, assessed, and employed. Boardroom decisions land on your flight deck. We translate them first. No corporate spin. Just the intelligence pilots actually need.   South African airlines are about to lose another wave of pilots. With no real career layers left locally between the regionals and the long-haul foreign jobs, our pilots have once again become the industry's cheapest, best-trained export. Meanwhile Starlink at 33,000 feet has rewired long-haul flying, Ryanair has wiped out 1.4 billion in pandemic debt, and passengers are starting to tip airline crew. Are you ready for the next 12 months in a South African right seat?   In this episode of The Bryan Air Podcast, Bryan Roseveare and Ryan Parrock break down the South African pilot exodus, Starlink in the cockpit, UK pilot salaries in 2026, Ryanair becoming debt-free, an easyJet power bank diversion, the Air India Express runway edge takeoff scare in Muscat, automated taxi bots at Schiphol, and the impact of the Middle East conflict on South African tourism.   TIME-STAMPED FLIGHT PLAN   00:00 Cold Open And This Week's Flight Plan   00:43 Starlink First Impressions From An Air France A350   02:09 Why Starlink Makes In-Flight WiFi Feel Brand New   02:54 Every Airline That Has Already Switched To Starlink   05:01 Why O'Leary Refuses To Put Starlink On Ryanair   06:03 The Hidden Cost Of Being Connected At 33,000ft   08:00 Starlink In The Cockpit: A Pilot Distraction Problem   11:27 The Paris Tipping Trap And Hidden Service Charges   13:38 A Charles de Gaulle Nightmare And The Captain Who Saved It   17:56 Passengers Are Now Tipping Airline Crew   21:05 Should Pilots Actually Be Tipped?   22:25 UK Pilot Salaries In 2026: The New Numbers   24:20 Why South African Pilots Are About To Leave Again   28:40 Ryanair Paid Off 1.4 Billion And Is Now Debt Free   29:51 The EasyJet Power Bank That Diverted A Plane To Rome   31:40 Air India Express Tried To Take Off On The Runway Edge   32:14 Middle East Conflict, SA Tourism And Etihad's Joburg Return   34:14 Schiphol's Automated Taxi Bots Are Live   36:59 FIFA World Cup Liveries And A New Bryan Air SuperBru   39:20 Wrap And Sign-Off   JOIN THE BRYAN AIR COMMUNITY   Bryan Air is a career intelligence ecosystem for pilots.

No corporate spin. Just the intelligence pilots actually need. Cape Town went off the air on Monday. Gusts over 50 knots, crews diverting to PE, East London, and even back to Joburg, and a Turkish long-haul thrown into the mix. Ryan unpacks his shift into the charter market while the Middle East ripples through the industry, and we get into why FlySafair's on-time performance is not luck, it is strategy you can study. Then we go global: Trump's 200-aircraft China deal, Singapore Airlines printing $2.4 billion in revenue, $49.5 million awarded in the Ethiopian 302 case, and Google preparing to launch AI data centres into orbit by 2027. The hiring floodgates are about to open. Are you ready when they do? In this episode of The Bryan Air Podcast, Bryan Roseveare and Ryan Parrock analyse Cape Town weather diversions, FlySafair's on-time performance strategy, China's 200-aircraft Boeing order, Ethiopian 302 compensation, Singapore Airlines record results, French Bee pilot strikes, and Google's plan for AI data centres in orbit.

No corporate spin. Just the intelligence pilots actually need. This week, three stories stacked on top of each other and they tell two completely different versions of where this industry is heading. IATA put hard numbers on the Gulf War, with Middle Eastern traffic down 58.6 percent year-on-year and global growth slowing to 2.1 percent in March. India's three biggest airlines wrote to their own government saying they are days from grounding aircraft as fuel rises from 40 percent to 60 percent of operating costs. Spirit folded. The UAE flipped its airspace switch back on and Emirates restored 96 percent of its network. Which story are you actually flying in? In this episode of The Bryan Air Podcast, Bryan Roseveare and Ryan Parrock break down the IATA fuel shock report, India's airlines on the brink, the UAE airspace reopening, Spirit Airlines folding, the BA taxi pilot job paying 100,000 dollars a year, the United 767 truck strike at Newark, and Japan Airlines testing humanoid robots on the ramp.

No corporate spin. Just the intelligence pilots actually need. Sitting across from Willie Walsh in Singapore, I asked the question every pilot, parent, and cadet is asking right now: will pilot jobs still exist in 10 to 15 years. His answer was honest, sharp, and not what the pilotless hype crowd wants to hear. This bonus reel pulls the highlights from IATA's World Data Symposium 2026: Walsh on the broader career paths most pilots ignore, the 1.4 billion people and only 50 wide bodies sitting in India, real-time turbulence data going straight to your iPad, why aviation is teaching the rest of tech how to govern AI, the honest truth about SAF, and a reminder that the right job at the right time is not always the heavy metal. If you are trying to read where this industry is actually heading, start here. In this bonus episode of The Bryan Air Podcast, Bryan Roseveare shares highlights from IATA WDS 2026 in Singapore featuring Willie Walsh (IATA Director General), Kim McCauley, David Fairman, Dr. Marie Owens Thompson, and Al McCauley on pilotless aircraft, pilot career outlook, AI in aviation, sustainable aviation fuel, and the future of the flight deck.

No corporate spin. Just the intelligence pilots actually need. SAA is back in the headlines, and not for the reasons anyone at home wants. The Auditor General has flagged the airline as a going concern with material uncertainty, and SA Technical's financials are reportedly too severe to even audit. That one lands hard locally. Globally, the bigger signal is Lufthansa cutting 20,000 short-haul flights this summer because the fuel maths no longer works. Bryan and Ryan translate what all of it means for your roster, your contract, and your next career move. In this episode of The Bryan Air Podcast, Bryan Roseveare and Ryan Parrock break down SAA's going concern warning, Lufthansa cutting 20,000 flights, the Pratt and Whitney GTF Advantage engine, the US pilot mental health bill, and a Dubai WhatsApp arrest every crew member should know about.

Premier Doug Ford walks back his jet-plane purchase, and says the media is picking on him for trying to run the province more efficiently. Hosts Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath get into whether that political communication works for Ontarians. Meanwhile, Ontario's NDP leader Marit Stiles is trying to make surveillance pricing a political issue here in Ontario – will her party's new communications strategy bring the official opposition back to the forefront? And a bill is exploring putting a stop to foreign ownership of some Ontario farmland. Why?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ric Payne has been thinking about how accountants build better practices for decades. If you have been in the industry for a while, you likely know about Ric Payne. He co-founded Results Accounting Systems in 1992, ran the Accountants Boot Camp across multiple continents, and worked with thousands of firms around the world. His conclusion? High-performing firms are selective about who they work with. The conversation also features Ian Brennan, director of Accounting Practice Academy (APA), a PGA workshop. Ian and Ric discuss how intentional client selection is foundational to everything else a firm tries to do; from pricing and marketing to advisory services and succession planning. This episode is for firm owners curious about how strategic client selection creates pricing power and referral momentum, practitioners ready to build a client base that supports an advisory practice, CPA firm leaders wondering how to increase net profit without simply chasing more revenue, and accountants who want to build a practice they are genuinely excited to show up for.Timestamps:0:00 - Introduction to The Accountant's Flight Plan podcast and guests3:11 - Overview of the episode: client selection and Ric's white paper6:42 - Why having no client criteria means having no strategy7:33 - Steve Jobs on what not to do: the decision framework that changed Ric's approach9:01 - The four growth profiles: fast-start satisfier, opportunistic harvester, & the patient builder15:15 - The founder's gap vs. the Midas gap: two very different CPA firm outcomes19:07 - Baker's Law: bad clients drive out good clients20:54 - Why partners with lower utilization often have the highest net profit per partner23:18 - Systems theory: your CPA firm is perfectly designed for the results it gets26:58 - John Wooden's definition of success and why it applies to accounting firm owners32:53 - Case study: UK accounting firm replaces ten 1,000-pound clients with one 10,000-pound client37:01 - Dealing with imposter syndrome when stepping into an advisory role41:11 - The 11 client selection criteria: the full walkthrough begins57:05 - Roger Martin's Playing to Win [https://www.amazon.com/dp/142218739X ]and how it applies to accounting practice management1:00:44 - Brannon on how the criteria tie back to personality, results, and client experience1:05:46 - APA lesson: You cannot market your accounting firm if you don't know who your clients are1:08:13 - How to find Ric Payne and access the client selection white paperDownload Now: https://poegroupadvisors.com/accounting-practice-academy/increase-letter/Price increases are nothing to fear.

We break down executive moves, economic forces, and the technology reshaping how pilots are trained, assessed, and employed. No corporate spin. Just the career intelligence pilots actually need. Jet fuel prices have doubled in three weeks. Brent crude is above $100 a barrel. Airlines are canceling thousands of flights and slapping surcharges on tickets. And yet Emirates is still selling seats while smoke from a drone strike billows over the Dubai skyline. In this episode, we dig into what the fuel shock actually means for pilots on the line, from South Africa's 21-day strategic reserve to European carriers killing green fuel mandates because they cannot afford regular kerosene. We ask the question a father called in to ask us: should his kid stay in flight school? And we look at whether this crisis reshuffles the deck for airlines like British Airways who are already adding capacity while Gulf carriers absorb the hit. In this episode of The Bryan Air Podcast, Bryan Roseveare and Ryan Parrock analyse the Middle East fuel crisis, jet fuel price shock, South Africa's supply vulnerability, Dubai airspace safety, pilot career strategy during conflict, British Airways market repositioning, and the growing role of AI in airline rostering ahead of the Singapore aviation symposium. ✈ TIME-STAMPED FLIGHT PLAN 00:00 Bryan Air decision training tool: practise cockpit decisions on live flights 01:09 Episode intro and why this week is not sugarcoated 01:58 Jet fuel doubles in three weeks: the numbers airlines do not want you to see 03:43 South Africa runs on imported fuel with 21 days of reserves 06:20 Should your kid go to flight school?

In this episode of the podcast we are explore the way the UK Armed Services has been radically upping its game in terms of the support, promotion and development of professional engineering careers. To do this, I'm joined today by Squadron Leader David Littlemore from the Royal Air Force, currently executive officer infrastructure at Cyber and Specialist Operations Command. David is also fellow of the Institution of Civil Engineers, in fact, the only chartered civil engineer in the RAF, and I'd say that he is also a passionate advocate for merging the best of military and civilian engineering training to create complete and capable professional engineers fit for the future. David's engineering career journey was unorthodox. He started straight from school, aged 16, working in a bridge design office, where he progressed through ONC and then HNC studies before gaining a degree in Civil Engineering at Durham University. He then switched to the military by being commissioning into the Royal Air Force in 2008. Since then his career has bridged the gap between civilian consultancy and high-stakes military infrastructure, tackling work across the UK and from the South Atlantic to the Middle East.And today, as a Chartered Civil Engineer, he is certainly testament to the "long winding road" of modern professional engineering careers. Beyond his technical expertise in project management and infrastructure delivery, he mentors young technicians and engineers and is committed to helping the next generation understand the profound value of professional recognition, and what it takes to build a career.ResourcesRAF Cyber and Specialist Operations CommandRAF professional engineering careersDavid Littlemore Linked InICE routes to membershipICE CouncilQUEST scholarships

If you’re feeling torn between “buy anything, it’s a housing crisis” and “don’t touch property, it’s all a bubble”, this episode is for you. In this solo flight, Bushy Martin ditches crystal balls and headlines and lays out a clear, conservative property flight plan for 2026. Not predictions. Not hotspots. Just grounded thinking to help you make calm, confident decisions in a noisy, FOMO-fuelled market. Because 2026 isn’t shaping up as a perfect storm, or a clean boom. It’s more like a patchwork quilt. Some markets will sizzle. Some will simmer. Others will stagnate. And the difference won’t come down to luck - it’ll come down to planning, positioning, and behaviour. Bushy unpacks what the big data houses and forecasters are saying — SQM, Domain, the banks, PK Gupta, Hotspotting, Cotality and more — then translates it into plain-English insights you can actually use, without becoming someone else’s exit strategy in an overcooked “Instagram suburb”. You’ll hear why Australia’s long-talked-about housing shortage still looks like a blocked drain, with construction, planning and infrastructure bottlenecks meaning we’re not building enough homes in the right places. That ongoing scarcity continues to support prices, even as affordability bites. Bushy also explains why government demand schemes often make the affordable end of the market less affordable, pushing more buyers into the same narrow price bands, turning entry-level markets into musical chairs while doing little to fix supply. And while most forecasts point upward into 2026, Bushy is clear: You shouldn’t build your life on a forecast. Instead, this episode gives you a framework to stress-test opportunities as if: Interest rates don’t fall Lending tightens further Your income is less secure than you’d like If a deal still stacks up under those assumptions, it’s probably worth a closer look. In this episode, you’ll discover: Why 2026 looks more like a patchwork quilt than a national boom or bust How underbuilding, affordability pressure and policy settings are shaping the year ahead Why forecasts are best-case scenarios, not personal investment plans The difference between genuine opportunity and Pied Piper hotspots driven by late-stage FOMO The types of markets Bushy sees as long-term “keepers”, and the “Not Spots” smart investors should treat with caution How to use the 3 I’s (Infrastructure, Industry, Incomes) and 3 P’s (People, Property, Position) as X-ray goggles for any location Why behaviour, not the market, is the biggest risk for investors in 2026 How small, smart, consistent steps beat chasing the next shiny thing A simple 2026 investor playbook built around Freedom Numbers, BEAR Facts, buffers and boundaries This isn’t a prediction show. It’s a planning session. If you’re ready to move from FOMO to a clear flight plan, one your future self will thank you for, settle in and let’s get invested.

Let's get to it! [3:44] Interview! Shawn Punancy, welcome to RIMScast! [3:53] Shawn Punancy is the ERM Senior Manager at Delta Air Lines, Inc. Shawn will be at the RIMS ERM Conference 2025, November 17th and 18th. Shawn has a fascinating career. [5:00] Shawn was an intelligence analyst at the U.S. DOD from 2011 to 2012, then moved to the CIA as a Senior Intelligence Analyst for seven years. [5:18] Shawn says it was great working at the CIA. She thinks there are very few places where you can work and have such broad awareness. Her year at the DOD was to prepare her to work at the CIA. [6:10] As an Analyst, Shawn worked in counter-terrorism, counter-narcotics, traditional political analysis, and leadership analysis. She did some targeting work, which is helpful for ERM. [6:27] After Shawn left the government, she worked briefly for a consulting firm in Atlanta, Georgia, doing business operating risk. She got word of a job in the Delta Corporate Safety and Security Division on the Intelligence and Risk Mitigation Team. [6:51] Shawn joined Delta, doing that for two years. She got to meet her Director, Eric Mai, whom she absolutely adores, and she's not just saying that because he may listen to this! Eric Mai introduced Shawn to the world of ERM. [7:07] Shawn started to see all the nexuses that existed between multiple different risks. Shawn says that working in corporate security on risk mitigation is like working at the DOD, but working in ERM is like working at the CIA. [7:42] Shawn was in high school on 9/11, and her mother was on a plane during the 9/11 attacks. Thankfully, she was not on a plane that was targeted on that terrible day. It left a lasting impression. [7:55] Shawn went on to study those types of events in International Affairs and Politics. That's how she got to her path in the government. Shawn is mission-driven and purposeful in her work. [8:42] Shawn applied to Delta when someone sent her a job posting. Shawn saw the posting and thought it looked like it was written for her. Shawn is thankful it worked out. [8:58] Shawn started as Program Manager for Intelligence and Risk Mitigation. She held that position for almost two years. In December of 2023, Shawn became Manager of ERM. The position did not exist before Shawn. ERM had been one person since 2019, when it was begun. [9:37] Eric Mai set up the ERM program. He realized that for it to continuously improve and grow, he needed another person. He went to bat for that role. Around the time it was posted, Eric came to Shawn and said that she might want to consider it, and he would love to have her apply. [9:57] Shawn is super grateful that Eric asked her. [10:13] Shawn says it is striking that ERM has played a small role in many companies. What if you don't know who that person is, or you're not engaging with that person? [10:53] Shawn has noticed that in several industries, the aviation industry included, everything is highly siloed. How does one ERM person get to everybody across the business? How do they make ERM relevant for the leadership and the board? [11:15] Something different could happen any day in the airline industry. Shawn says every day they get a notification from their Duty Director about what the day will look like. Some days, the system looks good: they're moving tens of thousands of people on several thousand flights. [11:33] Other days, there's a hurricane or something, or there is a strike somewhere that completely upends the day. It's a lively environment. [11:56] The American Airlines regional jet and helicopter crash in Washington, D.C. this year put a spotlight on Safety and Risk Managers to ensure they had the proper protocols in place and understood all the communication channels. They double-checked the protocols. [12:40] One thing Shawn loves about the airline industry is that safety is for everyone. There's no competition in safety. No one places blame. They come together to ensure that they are in the best position to continue to put safety first, not only for customers but also for all employees. [13:17] If Shawn had a mantra, it would be, You get further together than you do as an individual. She learned that from her time in Corporate Safety and Security and as an ERM professional. She could not do her job without relationships and connections across the company. [14:05] Shawn says Delta has a strong governance structure. The risk committee reports to the executive leadership team. ERM meets with the risk committee monthly to talk about what is coming up. ERM tracks that, so as risks build, they remember what was said months ago. [14:29] They prepare themselves for the known events of the next couple of months, such as an upcoming audit, an issue with plane manufacturers, or a suspected coming fleet delay. [14:53] ERM uses its governance structure to think through how to manage the risk, who is responsible, who is touched, what should be reported up to the leadership, and what can be managed at the business level. [15:07] Looking longer-term, ERM recently started talking directly to board members, asking for their perceptions about risk over the next three to five years. ERM also asks that question of the business leadership annually, to make sure management shares the same vision as the board. [15:38] ERM adds value by showing where those visions aligned, or if and when they diverged. Using that information helps inform the broader risk landscape. ERM uses that to engage the Strategy team with their annual goals and pillars; their Annual “Flight Plan.” [16:08] ERM shows the collected data on where risk lies to the Strategy Team and asks how it might affect the Flight Plan and the Five-Year Strategy. It's the role of ERM to highlight the risks they've identified through the forums they've engaged. [16:36] Shawn has two on her ERM team, including herself. Her team has strong relationships across Delta. That helps ERM to be a force multiplier. They lean on their colleagues to help stay aware, figure out the best direction to guide ERM efforts, and make an impact where possible. [17:24] Quick Break!

[19:12] In the heat of a crisis, Delta Airlines has a number of immediate or intermediate response teams that stand up. ERM is a part of those teams. They help inform the strategy for how Delta will respond. In the immediate aftermath, ERM is in listening mode. [19:25] ERM takes what they heard and goes on to support the strategic planning, moving forward. Business Continuity or Corporate Communications will handle the immediate feedback and response. [19:38] If it's likely to have a long-lasting impact on Delta, ERM will facilitate conversations among stakeholders across the enterprise to ensure that Delta has completely and cleanly exited the crisis and that they're on a good footing to avoid future crises of the same ilk. [20:05] One Final Break! As many of you know, the RIMS ERM Conference 2025 will be held on November 17th and 18th in Seattle, Washington. We recently had ERM Conference Keynote Speaker Dan Chuparkoff on the show. [20:23] He is back, just to deliver a quick message about what you can expect from his keynote on “AI and the Future of Risk.” Dan, welcome back to RIMScast! [20:34] Dan says, Greetings, RIMS members and the global risk community! I'm Dan Chuparkoff, AI expert and the CEO of Reinvention Labs. I'm delighted to be your opening keynote on November 17th, at the RIMS ERM Conference 2025 in Seattle, Washington. [20:49] Artificial Intelligence is fueling the next era of work, productivity, and innovation. There are challenges in navigating anything new. This is especially true for risk management, as enterprises adapt to shifting global policies, economic swings, and a new generation of talent. [21:07] We'll have a realistic discussion about the challenges of preparing for the future of AI. To learn more about my keynote, “AI and the Future of Risk Management,”  and how AI will impact Enterprise Risk Management for you, listen to my episode of RIMScast at RIMS.org/Dan.

[21:37] Justin thanks Dan and looks forward to seeing him again on November 17th and hearing all about the future of AI and risk management! [21:45] Let's Conclude Our Interview with One of the Presenters at the RIMS ERM Conference 2025, Shawn Punancy of Delta Airlines! [22:17] There are two opportunities to experience Shawn Punancy in person at the RIMS ERM Conference 2025, November 17th and 18th. She will be presenting with Lianne Appelt, the Head of Enterprise Risk Management at Salesforce: [22:47] Shawn says Lianne is the sweetest person she has ever met! Lianne is one of Justin's favorite people to work with on the Strategic Enterprise Risk Management Council. [23:24] On November 17th, at 11:45 a.m., Shawn and Lianne will present, “Connections Count: Strategic Networking to Strengthen Risk Oversight.” If you're a new risk professional or a rising star, and you want to get to the basics, this is the sort of session you attend. [24:05] Shawn gives the elevator pitch for the presentation. She says, if you understand anything about ERM, you understand that it's not something you can do alone. Having relationships across an enterprise is paramount to the success of any ERM program. [24:22] Figure out what opportunities exist to pursue those relationships. Annual or quarterly risk assessments are natural avenues for building relationships, but there are lots of others. Outside of formal structures, how can you engage people? [24:39] How can you use the data you've collected to drive conversations that may not otherwise exist? Those conversations inform you better and equip you better as an ERM professional as you get ready to present to your leadership team, audit committee, or board.  [25:42] Shawn has found that offering external information that may not otherwise be available to her stakeholders is a good way for her to go in and have a conversation.  [26:00] The information she offers is either something she's gotten from a vendor, or a risk source she has been tracking, or something ERM has done internally but hasn't publicized. She says, We have this piece of information we think is valuable to you. [26:20] Shawn finds that it's an incredible way to open doors, strengthen or start relationships, and use that to find a way to continue the conversation iteratively. It's been incredible for expanding who ERM talks to since Shawn has joined the team. [26:37] ERM already had a broad network, but looking for new opportunities has expanded it. [26:43] Shawn says Never let a good crisis or risk go to waste. ERM gets a daily bulletin of every news clip that mentions Delta. [27:00] ERM uses that as an opportunity to say, We've not engaged with you, but we saw this and it's something worth tracking at a more macro level on this other part of the spectrum. We'd love to talk to you about how the two pieces connect. [27:17] Some of that depends on company culture. Delta is one of those amazing places where you can email just about everybody and they will respond. That has been very helpful for Shawn. She knows that's not easily replicated everywhere. Shawn has also never met a stranger. [27:41] Understanding that ERM has value to add, whether it's relaying information or showing interconnections, there's a lot there, and people are usually responsive. [28:17] Talking to the board goes back to the relationships you have and the conversations you've had. If you're talking to the right people throughout the year, who have access to significant board member concerns, use that to help craft your story. [28:37] Shawn says pairing the insight you've gotten from those relationships with the data you have in your program helps drive a compelling narrative. [28:56] On November 18th, at 9:00 a.m., Shawn and Lianne will present an advanced-level session, “How Deep Should You Go?: Rightsizing Risk Assessments for Maximum Impact,” tailoring risk assessments to organizational maturity. [29:21] Shawn says it's a mistake for an ERM group not to understand what they have at their disposal in terms of data or stakeholders. Everything doesn't work for everybody. [29:28] You don't need a major, formalized 16-step assessment process when you're a new and burgeoning program. An older, more established program doesn't need something overly complex that doesn't match your company culture. [29:45] Shawn says she has been doing ERM for just shy of two years, so she's not the foremost expert in the room. She likes to rely on her historical experience of taking a bunch of data and talking to a lot of people, collecting intel, and figuring out what the story is. [30:02] Shawn is super passionate about this. With the 8,000 ways you can do a risk assessment, it's so important to consider some specific factors that will help you to have a stronger impact when you do the assessment. Shawn will save those for the presentation. [30:55] Shawn says she firmly believes the biggest opportunity for ERM professionals is to find and communicate that interconnected risk. We hear it everywhere. Justin points out that a paper on “Understanding Interconnected Risks” is in this episode's show notes. [31:13] Shawn thinks that's the biggest opportunity for ERM. Many teams have their risk evaluation silos. Having someone come in and show how A is connected to D, is connected to X, is the next step and the game-changer for a lot of teams. [31:38] Justin says, I'm looking forward to meeting you in person, and I'm so glad that you're going to be delivering the two sessions, Monday, November 17th, and Tuesday, November 18th! It was a pleasure to meet you! [32:08] Shawn is very thankful for this opportunity and super excited about talking about this content, partnering with Lianne, and meeting the broader RIMS community.

Quality leadership that grows your accounting practice isn't about pushing your team to work harder. While it may sound counterintuitive, modeling a healthy, balanced life is what actually moves the needle. In this episode of The Accountant's Flight Plan, Rob Dube opens the conversation by emphasizing that when leaders prioritize wellness, the team will follow suit. This results in less burnout, fewer mistakes, better client service, and a more harmonious work environment. If you are happy in your work and life, your team and CPA practice will thrive as well. Brannon and Rob also discuss the importance of vulnerability and authentic connection to maintain effective leadership. By sharing your personal story with partners, employees, and close peers, leaders build trust and authentic engagement. Some practical ways to start doing this could be asking for feedback from your close friends and peers on what your strengths and weaknesses are, allowing leaders to shed their “armor”. This can lead to more self-awareness and foster deeper relationships and a higher-energy workplace.To conclude, Rob and Brannon discuss the importance of setting boundaries to prioritize high-value work. The effectiveness of avoiding hustle culture, taking time off, and delegating lower-value tasks ensures that leaders remain energized for what truly matters. By focusing on purpose, energy, and mindful action, leaders can build resilient teams, sustainable practices, and more fulfilling lives.Timestamp List: Key Sections:02:00 - Introducing The Ten Disciplines04:00 - Climbing the Two Mountains: Achievement vs. Meaning07:00 - Chaos vs. Awareness: Tuning Into Your Body11:00 - Understanding the Driven Personality14:00 - Vulnerability and the Inner Story21:00 - Practical Steps to Peel Back the Armor26:00 - Combatting Hustle Culture and Setting Boundaries31:00 - Delegating and Avoiding Low-Value Work37:00 - Resources and Key TakeawaysLink to full listing: https://poegroupadvisors.com/practice/sc2038/ Firm Highlights:- Young, energetic owner committed to staying 10+ years to run and grow the firm.- Selling 70–100% equity, with plans to offer key employees an ownership stake.- 3+ CPAs on staff and over 20 employees.- High-net-worth clients with strong loyalty and consistent referrals.- 78% of services tied to business clients.

The Evolving Role of Private EquityIn this special episode of The Accountant's Flight Plan, Brannon meets with Morry Brown, regional market leader here at Poe Group Advisors, formerly of Goldman Sachs, to share a timely update on how private equity is  impacting mergers and acquisitions in the accounting profession today.This was a live discussion with an informative Q&A at the end.  Morry and Brannon dive deep into the steady rise of PE-backed deals and discuss the impact of outside capital on CPA firm sales. They unpack why it is funding partner buyouts and, therefore, reshaping the structure of firm operations themselves. Morry highlights why many of these investors view the accounting profession as a “sticky” industry, given its recurring revenue streams. This makes CPA firms especially attractive compared to other industries with less stable revenue projections.Pros and Cons for CPA FirmsBrannon highlights that while PE firms often bring significant advantages (including technological advancements and recruitment capital), the deal structures they propose can be unrealistic when compared to traditional sales. Morry reflects that the earnouts and layered incentives within these deal proposals are becoming increasingly common. This can, unfortunately, create complications for sellers who are looking for a cleaner transition than private equity can provide. Brannon and Morry both emphasize the importance of owners thinking carefully about what they want. Especially, considering that a straightforward deal that looks less flashy on paper might be better in practice than a larger quote that relies on a complex earnout structure that would lead to a messy exit.What CPA Firm Owners Need to Know for the FutureSo what do the next 12–18 months look like for the industry? With interest rates and capital funds shifting consistently, Brannon and Morry believe that not all private equity buyers will remain active to the same degree. For firm owners, this simultaneously creates opportunities and reasons to be cautious. Before deciding your next steps in the future of your firm, get clear on what your own goals are outside of the changing tide within the industry. Whether you want to maximize your firm's value, ensure continuity for your staff, or simply exit without complexity, knowing your goals will help you make them a reality.Timestamps:02:00 – Introductions of Morry and Brannon06:30 – Why private equity is interested in accounting firms' sales10:15 – PE-backed deals vs. traditional sales: what's the difference?14:45 – Earnouts, incentives, and PE's risk of overcomplication20:10 – Possible benefits of PE investment: talent and technology upgrades26:00 – Market shifts: Interest rates and deal pace 31:30 – Practical advice for firm owners considering PE offers43:58 – Question and Answer period from firm owners like you!
