Rockville, MD, December 16, 2009/PRNewswire/ -- Aronson & Company, a nationally ranked top 50 accounting and consulting firm announced that, effective June 1, 2010, it would be making management changes designed to help the firm enhance and strengthen its business development and growth strategies. In a move unprecedented in the firm’s 47-year history, the firm will name current Managing Officer, Lisa J. Cines, as the Officer in Charge of Business and Corporate Development. Jeffery P. Capron has been nominated by the firm’s Board of Directors and elected by its shareholders to serve in the role of Managing Officer to manage the overall operations of the firm.
“I am very excited about this new strategy,” remarked Capron. “With Lisa focused on the growth and development of the firm, we hope to take advantage of her deep experience in the firm – having served as the firm’s Managing Officer for nine important years – as well as her many contacts in the community and throughout the profession. We are fortunate to have a person like Lisa to take on this important role for us.”
Cines commented on her new role, “Even as we focus on the daily process of doing business and servicing our clients, we believe it’s also critical that we continue to grow in both size and clientele. As one of the Metro Area’s few remaining independent, middle-market firms, we’re going to aggressively exploit our deep expertise to capture significant market share in each of the industries we serve.”
By dedicating an officer completely to the task of business development and growth, A&C is confident that it can build on its unique niche expertise and knowledge of the industries that drive the Metro Area economy. While the company has always been strategically aligned to mirror the region’s business community, it now is placing greater emphasis on how it attracts clients and cultivates new industry segments.
Cines continued, “We’re seeing a rapid shift in the way companies do business and traditional marketing and sales methods aren’t going be enough to drive real growth. We’re going to explore unique and innovative tactics to cultivate and capture new business opportunities. It’s important to create a strong business development model and to have somebody that will drive and propel that initiative; I’m thrilled to be the person who takes A&C to that next level.”
