TORONTO, ON – (June 3, 2024) RSM Canada (“RSM”) - a leading global provider of assurance, tax and consulting services - is pleased to announce that Dean Sengstock will lead our new Professional Services+ (PS+) Practice, effective June 1, 2024. Our new PS+ Practice is the evolution of our former RSM Alliance to honour the value and collaborative spirit clients have come to expect, while offering expertise, insights and integrated solutions to help professional service firms grow, thrive and feel confident to face a rapidly changing world.

RSM’s PS+ Practice provides professional service firms in accounting, consulting, law and other professions access to a wide range of services, leading tools and tailored solutions to accelerate their growth. PS+ clients may participate in the PS+ Collaborative, a value-added client benefit that facilitates peer-to-peer engagement around the unique and evolving needs of their organizations, their clients and their people through annual conferences, peer groups, workshops, roundtables and other interactions.

“RSM’s leadership in the middle market and in our own profession surfaced an opportunity for RSM to deepen our commitment to professional service firms with the launch of our new PS+ practice,” said Brian Becker, managing partner & CEO with RSM US LLP. “As professional service providers and their clients are facing many new regulatory, business, geopolitical and economic challenges, they are seeking relevant insights and solutions to help them effectively grow and manage their own practices and provide additional resources for their clients. Dean’s deep professional services knowledge combined with many years of experience leading client engagement initiatives and driving client service excellence will help us bring the full power of RSM to the professional services space.”

“Our firm embraces change as a catalyst for identifying new opportunities,” said Sengstock. “As the business environment becomes increasingly regulated, digital and global, our professional services clients are looking to RSM as a resource for expertise, insights and solutions to help them feel confident to take charge of the change around them and their clients. We are very excited about this new opportunity to provide leadership and connection among the professional services community.”

Sengstock is a partner with RSM US LLP and served as the national leader of the former RSM Alliance, an affiliation of independent professional service firms in the United States, Canada, the Cayman Islands and Puerto Rico. Prior to that he was a tax professional who specialized in professional service firms. He is a certified public accountant and certified management accountant. He earned a Master of Business Taxation degree from the University of Minnesota and a Bachelor of Science degree in accounting from University of Wisconsin–La Crosse. He resides in Minneapolis, Minnesota and enjoys golfing, boating, and spending time with family.
