Recent Career Highlights:

Laurence Whittam is the Founder of Impact Global Solutions which was created to help CPA firms understand how to effectively build offshore teams. With so many vendors and options there was no one independently helping educate & guide firms about all the nuances that come with establishing a successful offshore team. He has impacted over 500 firms from sole proprietors to Top 100 firms.  

  • Most recently helped Blue a Top 55 CPA firm strategize, prepare and implement their global team, who have already exceeded their initial goals.  
  • Laurence is the author of the “Outsourcing Best Practice Toolkit” published by the AICPA which is accessible to members and currently helping hundreds of professionals navigate their outsourcing/offshoring journey.  
  • Released the Outsourcing Readiness Assessment which is a tool firms can utilize to assess their current firm and provides feedback on what they can improve to have a better experience outsourcing. 

What are you doing to make a difference in the profession, your community, the world?

I’ve seen so many professionals struggle to utilize global talent over the years and the common theme is many firms must change internally to make offshoring truly successful. I frequently speak at industry events, sharing valuable insights and best practices with peers. I am always creating educational content to help firms navigate the complexities of outsourcing and offshoring. Most recently I have created an “Outsourcing Mastery Course” to help more firms understand outsourcing on a wider scale. I regularly conduct due diligence on outsourcing providers, to ensure firms have access to the best providers in the space. Additionally, I collaborate with industry associations to educate their members effectively, contributing to the overall advancement of the profession.  

What are you currently reading/listening to that improves your professional development?
