Bob McAdams, Retired BDO Partner, joined us for this episode of Life In Accounting: The Where Accountants Go podcast.Becoming Managing Partner…Bob’s story is interesting for several reasons, but one of the most interesting points for me was that he was recruited off campus while at St. Mary’s University in San Antonio by Bill Chumney Jr., and eventually became Managing Partner at that very firm – Carneiro Chumney &amp; Company. Several years later, as many of the partners were approaching retirement age, the firm merged with BDO – one of the largest national firms in the United States.A Leader in the ProfessionIn addition to being a leader in his firm, you will hear in the interview that Bob had a desire to make a difference in the profession overall as well. He’s been active for many, many years with the TSCPA organization, but the opportunity to get even more involved presented itself when he was approached about serving on the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy as their Treasurer – a position that he currently holds.A job anyone would want…I joke about it a little in the interview, but there’s some truth to this… now that he’s retired from BDO, Bob has the job that pretty much anyone would want. Around the time his pending retirement was being announced, he was approached by the CEO of United Way in San Antonio to join their organization in an operational role. It’s not an accounting position, but his years of operating an accounting firm and consulting with clients definitely come into play. Bob currently works about 25 hours per week on a flexible schedule helping the charities that United Way supports operate more efficiently by providing consulting services on their general operations – a fun position that further fulfills his desire to serve the overall community.I know you will greatly enjoy this episode. Bob is very insightful and open about his journey.If you would like to look into volunteer opportunities through the United Way, please visit http://www.volunteersanantonio.org/.Have a great week!
