The Mid-Career Professionals Resource Group from the Iowa Society of CPAs helps support CPAs who are navigating the unique challenges and opportunities that come with being experienced yet still rising in their role. This group offers a space for connection, practical learning, and real conversations about topics like leadership, work-life integration, career evolution, and staying relevant in a changing profession. Whether you’re feeling energized or uncertain or somewhere in between, this community is here to help you grow with purpose and clarity.
Feeling stretched thin or caught between burnout and wanting more? Whatever you are feeling you are not alone. The good news is that you can take ownership of your role and your career journey.

- A tool to help you gain clarity in your role
