Navigating Emerging Risks and Workforce Challenges to Find Growth
No matter your area of expertise—whether you are an accountant, architect, engineer, real estate agent or strategy consultant—all elements of the professional services industry face increasingly complex brand, growth, operational, reputational and workforce risks.
For example, professional services firms are particularly vulnerable to cyber attacks due to the large volumes of sensitive client data they hold, under growing pressure to address a wide range of legal and regulatory requirements plus environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, and must explore new ways to attract and retain an increasingly mobile workforce in a post-pandemic world, all while navigating rapid digital advances and new geopolitical tensions.
At Aon, our teams have deep experience across all segments of the professional services industry, and we partner with clients to identify and implement sophisticated risk mitigation strategies, drive growth through novel applications of data and analytics, and create sustainable people strategies that improve employee engagement, health and wellbeing.
