Forbes Recognizes RSM Leaders on Inaugural List of Top 200 CPAs

CHICAGO – (April 19, 2024) – RSM US LLP (“RSM”) – the leading provider of assurance, tax and consulting services for the middle market – is proud to announce that Managing Partner & CEO Brian Becker and three other RSM partners: Laura Dietzel, partner and real estate assurance leader; Sara Lord, partner and chief auditor; and Kurt Shenk, partner and Industry Eminence Program senior analyst for the  technology industry; have been included in Forbes’ inaugural list of Top 200 CPAs.

The Forbes Top 200 CPAs list recognizes certified public accountants (CPAs) with impressive track records in their specialties, those who have broken barriers to emerge as leaders in their fields, who have contributed to advancing the CPA profession, and who have given back to society. According to Forbes, the recognition is a testament to CPAs who have a superb track record and impeccable integrity.

The list is a compilation of some of the finest CPAs active in public practice, culled from a collection of candidates sourced through independent nominations and accolades from every society and association of CPAs. Nominees were rated on a range of weighted criteria, including expertise, innovation, thought leadership, experience and service to their communities and their profession.

“I am excited to see my colleagues, Laura, Sara and Kurt recognized as leading CPAs by Forbes,” said Becker. “These RSM leaders deliver services with quality and due professional care as they instill confidence in a world of change – for investors, our clients, our colleagues and our communities.”
