I had the pleasure of spending some quality time last night with Jerry Maginnis, a seasoned executive in the accounting field whose vast experience spans various leadership roles, including serving as the Office Managing Partner for KPMG's Philadelphia Office and now contributing to the success of organizations like Cohen & Steers Mutual Funds, inTEST Corporation, and Centri Business Consulting, LLC.

One of the highlights of our meeting was receiving a signed copy of Jerry's book, Advice for a Successful Career in the Accounting Profession, How to Make Your Assets Greatly Exceed Your Liabilities. Jerry brings his decades of experience to bear in this insightful guide, offering practical advice for those at different stages in their accounting careers, from students just starting to professionals who are seeking to enhance their skills.

Apart from his professional accomplishments, Jerry is an avid advocate for the future of our profession. His work as an Executive in Residence at Rowan University and as a past president of the PICPA (Pennsylvania Institute of Certified Public Accountants) speaks volumes of his commitment to nurturing the next generation of accountants and driving the evolution of the profession.

If you don't yet follow Jerry, you should! His insights are valuable to anyone in the accounting field, whether you're an early-career professional or a seasoned expert. His dedication to the profession is truly inspiring and provides a leadership model.

Thank you, Jerry, for your time, book, and, most importantly, commitment to the future of accounting.
