At EYB Consulting, we’ve seen firsthand how real growth happens when businesses embrace change and build for the long term. One story that stands out for us is a small business owner who came to us feeling overwhelmed. Their business was expanding quickly, but the systems in place couldn’t keep up. Together, we worked on simplifying operations, introduced better tools, and refined their cash flow strategy. Within just six months, they weren’t just surviving – they were thriving, doubling their capacity and delighting their customers along the way. Growth is about moving forward, even when the path isn’t always clear. We’re here to help businesses navigate that journey. #BusinessGrowth #SustainableSuccess #EYBConsulting #SmallBusinessJourney

I love those client conversations. The ones where you get to have a micro impact, an impact immediately within the space of the conversation. When the ideas you share, the questions you ask and the facilitation of the ‘chat’ helps move the clients ‘challenge’ forward. As management consultants we may not be able to change the world. But through our thoughts, ideas and actions we can help organisations make positive changes for the benefit of their business, their people and of course, in some cases, the environment. #profitpeopleplanet #futureofwork Grant Thornton UK LLP

🔍The just-announced formation of Forvis Mazars LLP has far-reaching global implications, set to be a juggernaut in the international accounting sphere. However, I keenly note that the ripples of this development are promised to be felt acutely on home soil, particularly right here in Dallas and Fort Worth. ● The integration of the two firms places the reins into the capable hands of ex-Forvis CEO, Mr. Tom Watson. As the mast of Forvis Mazars, his ambitions and strategies will undeniably influence the American accounting landscape. ● Appointing new leaders within the Dallas and Fort Worth offices underscores an intent to invigorate and navigate those spaces via new perspectives and innovative approaches. ▪️But, what does this mean to us on-ground participants in the Texas economy? Given the influence inherent with this scale of business converging, these developments will potentially: 1️⃣Refine local business landscapes due to the directed influence of a global-leading accounting major. 2️⃣Open up opportunities for intra-industry collaboration and partnerships as Forvis Mazars LLP seeks to establish it's presence. 3️⃣Influence recruitment trends and skill demand due to potential shifts in their service portfolio. I contend that businesses and professionals in the region should keep a vigilant eye on this merger. Adapting to the changes it will instigate could be key to riding the tide of this looming giant. Lastly, with both exciting increasingly critical socio-economic times and strong leadership steering Forvis Mazars, I put forth that we might see an accelerated transformation of North Texas into a global accounting hub. Let's watch this space for more and wish the folks at Forvis Mazars LLP all the best! #news #analysis #businessnews #accounting #ForvisMazars
