Dianne Aronica, CPA liked thisDianne Aronica, CPA liked thisAfter 43 terrific and incredibly rewarding years working in the accounting profession, including the past 36 years at Anchin, Block amp; Anchin (now Baker Tilly), I will be retiring effective October 1, 2026. When I look back on my career, I feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude. During my time at Anchin, I’ve had the privilege of working with extraordinary people, wonderful clients, and an industry that has given me so many opportunities to learn, grow, and build lasting relationships. I’m especially proud of the time I spent leading Anchin’s Fashion Group. Being part of the fashion industry was far more than simply a professional specialty—it became a passion. I had the opportunity to work with creative, entrepreneurial, and incredibly driven people across the industry, and I’m grateful for the trust they placed in me and our team over the years. But when I think about what I will remember most, it won’t be the numbers, transactions, or business challenges. It will be the people - the colleagues who became friends, the clients who became trusted relationships, the mentors who helped shape my career, and the many people I had the privilege of working with along the way. I’m incredibly thankful to everyone who has been part of this journey. You have made my career more fulfilling than I could have imagined when I started. I also want to thank my beautiful wife, Debbi, and my beautiful and successful daughters, Erica and Samantha (I’m so proud of each of you), for their unwavering support throughout my career. You always encouraged me to do my best and patiently put up with the long hours, weekends spent working, and business travel that came with the job. I could not have done it without you. As I turn the page and begin this next chapter, I’m excited about what retirement will bring more time with family and friends, more golf, more pickleball, new adventures, new interests, and, hopefully, plenty of time to enjoy life outside of the office. Leaving a career and a firm that have been such an important part of my life is certainly bittersweet. But I leave with tremendous pride in what we accomplished, deep appreciation for the relationships I’ve built, and countless memories that I will cherish. To my colleagues, clients, friends, and everyone who has been part of my journey: thank you. After 43 amazing years, I’m looking forward to what comes next. Here’s to the next chapter!

Dianne Aronica, CPA liked thisDianne Aronica, CPA liked thisWhat gives a dedicated professional the courage to take bold risks, innovate fearlessly, and bring their whole heart to work every single day? It is having a manager who doesn’t just oversee their tasks, but fiercely fights for them in every room they cannot enter. There is profound power in knowing your leader is in your corner. A truly human-centric manager puts you in the spotlight and shares the credit, while stepping in front of the fire to take the heat when things go wrong. They don't just assign deadlines; they fiercely guard your bandwidth, honor your personal limits, and block the noise so your strengths can shine. Behind closed doors, where decisions are made, they speak your name with pride and advocate for your growth. When a leader says, "I've got your back," and proves it through action, fear dissolves. In its place grows deep psychological safety, unwavering loyalty, and extraordinary innovation. Leadership is never about collecting authority or protecting an ego; it is about extending a shield of support so others can rise. Be the advocate your team deserves. Stand up for their dignity, champion their brilliance, and lead with compassion that transforms lives. True leaders do not stand over you; they stand up for you. Guard your people, celebrate their genius, and fight for their future. Ready to master the ultimate blueprint of human-centric leadership and cultivate an empowering, high-trust culture where your team thrives every single day? Order copies of my book, The Blueprint of Leadership, on Amazon for your entire team today. True leaders do not demand loyalty; they earn it by fighting for their people. Protect your team, elevate their brilliance, and lead with heart. Invest in your team’s growth. Order on Amazon today: https://geni.us/s2nooOD

Dianne Aronica, CPA liked thisDianne Aronica, CPA liked this𝗖𝗮𝘀𝗵 𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗮𝗽𝗲. 👇 👇 👇 EBITDA is the highlight reel. Cash flow is the game tape. It starts with net income (already shaped by accounting choices). Then adds back depreciation, amortization, interest, taxes. All adjustable. All subject to judgment. Add-backs for "one-time" items. Normalization adjustments. Pro-forma this. Exclude that. Every number above the cash flow line can be framed. Cash flow cannot. Either the cash arrived. Or it didn't. Either it left the account. Or it didn't. No narrative changes that. This is why acquirers stress-test EBITDA against operating cash flow. This is why lenders price risk on cash coverage, not earnings multiples. This is why the most dangerous CEOs are the ones optimizing for the number that can be managed. Bottom line? EBITDA tells the story you want to tell. Cash flow tells the story that's true. Know the difference. Build on the right one. ------
