For RSM, Serving the Middle Market Brings Big Changes, Major Opportunity

By Gary Sturisky

“Mind-boggling.” That’s one way to describe the pace of change in today’s business environment. To succeed, businesses have to be willing to change, innovate and take educated risks. And the old adage “opportunity rarely knocks twice” is still around, simply because it happens to be true.

RSM is focused on being the first-choice advisor to middle market leaders globally. These businesses generate approximately 40 percent of the nation’s GDP and employ about one-third of its workforce. The world is shrinking, however, and increasingly businesses in the middle market are becoming internationally active – either through expansion or relationships with vendors, suppliers and others who operate internationally – as an essential component of their growth.
