Ron's Story
Ron is MORE than an accountant, he's a weekend cattle rancher. With the right combination of hard work and motivation, the open ranges become unlimited possibilities.
Ron Yates believes the advancement potential at Eide Bailly is unlimited because he knows the Firm places a strong emphasis on personal and professional growth. "The Firm provides outstanding opportunities for all levels to grow and advance in their careers. At Eide Bailly, a 'standard' career path is non-existent. The Firm's culture enables staff and partners to customize their careers based on their unique interests, aspirations and motivations," Ron says.
Ron would know. After joining Eide Bailly through an acquisition, he was intrigued by new opportunities and motivated to continue progressing his career as a tax professional. Within a short period of time, Ron was invited to join the partnership. "To rise to partner level, you don't necessarily have to put in the most hours, which may have been the case a generation ago," Ron shares. "Now, if you are committed to growing your technical skills and leadership abilities, the potential to become partner is more likely. These skills not only helped me advance my career, but also impacted the success of my family's cattle ranch."
No matter how we define success, Eide Bailly helps us achieve our goals through ongoing career development. "I am fortunate that the Firm continues to provide me with challenging work, training and increased responsibility," Ron comments. "Specifically, I've been involved in the Firm's Leadership Training Program. This intense program has helped me enhance and develop my leadership skills, both personally, as well as for the Firm."
Advancement opportunities have enabled Ron to be more than an accountant-he's a partner and a weekend cattle rancher.
