Intuit Launches ERP, China Fines PwC, OpenAI's New Model
The Accounting Podcast
Addressing Leadership Silence and Mental Health in Accounting
This chapter examines the consequences of leadership silence on significant accounting issues, especially following PwC's audit scandal in China. It also delves into the mental health challenges faced by professionals in high-pressure accounting environments and includes a promotion for SafeSend, a tool aimed at improving tax processes.
Blake and David explore Intuit's new Enterprise Suite, a product that appears to compete with NetSuite in the mid-market ERP space. They also
discuss a major audit failure by PwC in China related to Evergrande, raising concerns about the ethics and integrity at large accounting firms.
They also discuss the tragic death of a young accountant at EY in India due to overwork and explore the implications of OpenAI's latest model
outperforming humans on IQ tests.
