WELCOME FROM THE MANAGING PARTNER

Be Your Best For Others

Devotion to the people of RubinBrown.

This is one of our core values…and one that we, as a firm, take very seriously. Several years ago, we began work on creating an employment brand. Development of the brand was a lengthy process as it was important to us that our brand conveys our people-centric culture as well as communicates our servant leadership way of life. We’ve all heard about the concept of servant leadership. The servant leader focuses primarily on the growth and well-being of people and the communities to which they belong. At RubinBrown, we’re all leaders and we’re all committed to serving each other. We believe that when we are being our best for both our clients and our fellow team members, we are being our best for ourselves. We also demonstrate “being our best” by serving our communities, as well as the accounting profession. There’s nothing more rewarding for me than to hear my fellow team members speak of our employment brand in their daily conversations. We have encouraged each other with this brand and we reflect on it in making our most important and ethical business decisions. After many hours of brainstorming and debate, we unanimously settled on the brand, “Be Your Best For Others”.
