From the Center for Accounting Transformation
A near-tragedy sparks a real conversation in this episode of Accounting ARC, where Donny Shimamoto, Byron Patrick, and Liz Mason explore what happens when “what if” becomes reality.
After Mason shares her own close call, the discussion shifts to the importance of business continuity—and why so many firms avoid planning for it until it’s too late.
From leadership transitions and system access to vendor risk and client impact, this episode highlights how quickly operations can unravel without a plan—and how firms can turn continuity into both protection and advisory opportunity.
