Listening to our Directors and Principals

3 BDO LLP | LISTENING TO OUR DIRECTORS AND PRINCIPALS

AN INTRODUCTION

Between April and June ’21 – as BDO was operating predominantly as a fully- remote but fully-connected workforce and the UK began to ease out of its latest C-19 lockdown – our Managing Partner, Paul Eagland, wanted to hear about the experiences of our Directors and Principals. 80 Directors and Principals, organised by Stream or PMD cohorts, spent 90 minutes each sharing their views with Paul on post- COVID recovery, agile working, career development, wellbeing and our culture. This report summarises the themes of the listening events, as well as actions and ideas to be explored as a result. The Directors and Principals listening events are part of an ongoing series of Managing Partner listening events. Recent topics have included Gender Balance, with some of our female managers and above, and BDO’s Social Impact with our partners. Paul’s next listening event is with some of our trainees.
