Manager Experience Survey to Measure Middle of the Firm Talent Pipeline
The Illinois CPA Society is launching a new survey as a part of its ongoing research into the accounting talent pipeline.
While entry-level staff shortages and graduation rates has been the subject of extensive study, far less attention has been paid to the managers responsible for developing, supporting, and retaining entry-level talent. To build on the ICPA’s prior work and address the needs of the next talent layer, the society is conducting new research to better understand the experiences, challenges, and support needs of people managers in today’s evolving workplace.
The Manager Experience Survey is intended for accounting and finance professionals within their first five years of managing others, both current managers and those who transitioned out of a people management role within this time.
