'Sikich Is Much More Than An Accounting Firm'

A: Sikich specializes in technology-enabled professional services. With nearly 1,200 employees across the country, we offer a uniquely crafted suite of services -- ranging from accounting to technology to advisory offerings -- to help businesses address challenges and maximize opportunities.

Q: Do you plan to hire any additional staff or make any significant capital investments in your company in the next year?

A: Yes, we will continue to invest in our people and technology, across all service lines, to better serve our clients. We'll also continue to consider strategic expansion through acquisitions across geographies and service offerings.

Q: What will your company's main challenges be in the next year?

A: An ongoing challenge for many companies, Sikich included, is acquiring and retaining top talent. We're focused on creating a company and culture that best supports our employees. In 2020, Sikich transitioned to a flexible approach to work that allows employees to work where they are most effective and improve their work-life integration. We've also invested in employee engagement initiatives to preserve our culture.

Sikich's growth and success is dependent on our access to great people. Through our tech-enabled approach and workplace flexibility, we're prepared to face this talent challenge head on and continue to attract innovative thinkers and experts to our team.

Q: What's the hottest trend in your industry?

A: I see two trends making a major impact on the industry. The first is consolidation. Especially as the pandemic has weakened geographic barriers and allowed companies to explore new markets, smaller firms must invest heavily in their people and technology or they'll likely be acquired by larger firms that are already making these investments.

The second trend is automation. By using technology to its fullest potential, we cannot only reduce the amount of time it takes to perform a service, but we can also provide our people with a better experience by eliminating redundant tasks and allowing them to focus on strategic work. Sikich is aggressively implementing robotic process automation to improve efficiency, cut down on manual tasks and provide a more rewarding experience for employees.
