As we celebrate the first anniversary of Forvis Mazars, we reflect on the growth, milestones, and strategic steps that have shaped our journey.
This year has been one of incredible momentum, where the value of being a partner-owned, partner-led firm has driven both global expansion and the development of our people, positioning us for continued success in the years ahead.
Our success is rooted in our commitment to delivering an Unmatched Client Experience® and developing the next generations of leaders. This year, we’ve made notable strides in strengthening our leadership pipeline, expanding our footprint, and maintaining a focus on stewardship and growth.
“Being part of a global organization has unlocked tremendous potential for both our people and our clients,” said Tim York, chief growth officer and U.S. Governing Board chair. “We’ve expanded our reach, launched many impactful client-oriented initiatives, and seen endless current and future opportunities for growth with our team. We have far surpassed our expectations of how this would empower us to better serve clients and engage our teams in this first year, and we’re only getting started.”
Highlights of Forvis Mazars’ first year include:
- Unmatched Client Experience® – Forvis Mazars maintained a Net Promoter Score of 80, more than twice the industry average, and continued its recognition as a ClearlyRated Diamond Award winner for providing superior service to clients.
- Empowering future leaders – During 2024 and 2025, the firm advanced more than 100 new partners and managing directors, and launched the Protégé Program to support the development of the next generation of women leaders.
- Investment in people – The firm was once again named among the top organizations in the country for learning and talent development by Training Magazine.
- Strategic expansion – The addition of MSL, P.A. strengthened Forvis Mazars’ presence in the Florida market.
- Industry Recognition – CEO Tom Watson was named to Accounting Today’s Top 100 Most Influential People list, and 59 team members were honored on the Forbes Best-In-State CPAs.
As we look ahead, our focus remains on stewarding our firm for future generations. At our upcoming VISION conference, we will celebrate both the growth of our people and the continued success of the Forvis Mazars global network.
“Our commitment to stewardship shapes every step we take and is at the core of who we are,” said CEO Tom Watson. “We believe in long-term thinking and creating opportunity for the leaders of tomorrow while staying true to the values that brought us here. We’re confident that our strong culture and focus on long-term success will continue to unlock potential for our people, clients, and communities for many years to come.”
