168. Showcasing possibility, with Dalton Tong

As we’re wrapping up Black History Month and recognizing the contributions of Black Americans, we are closing down the month with a bit of a look ahead. We’re still taking stock of achievements from our past, but this time we’re doing it with an eye toward the future as well.Joining that conversation, today, is Dalton Tong. He’s a CPA and a CGMA with a career that’s steeped in health care and health management, in addition to accounting and finance. He's been a senior lecturer at the Carey Business School at Johns Hopkins University since 2014. Before that, he worked as Vice President, Executive Vice President, and President and CEO of the Greater Southeast Healthcare System, and as Vice President of Finance at Harbor Hospital Center, formerly South Baltimore General Hospital.Tong has a number of achievements to his name, but rather than talking about them, he wanted to discuss and highlight the impact those achievements may have on the future generation of CPAs. He calls it “showcasing possibility,” letting future generations know what’s possible so that they can step forward with confidence and hope.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit blionline.org/blog.Resources:Dalton Tong, MBA, CPA, CGMA, FACHE, FHFMA'Limited pipeline' biggest challenge in advancing DE&I, survey finds | Accounting TodayFuture-Proof is a production of Crate Media
