Sand foundations
TS is sure DSH and BDO meant well. But it doesn’t change the fact that accountancy firms judging a pie-throwing contest, or aiming to build the most sandcastles to make it into the Guinness World Records, just isn’t the best way of showing your capabilities.
TS appreciates that in the first instance DSH was judging the World Custard Pie-Throwing Championships held at Mote Park in Kent, in aid of three charities.
And in the second instance, BDO was trying to show its team spirit for the most sandcastles by building 520 in an hour.
Still, can you imagine the reaction if KPMG sent John Griffiths Jones in to judge The Eurovision Song Contest, or PwC’s Peter Wyman took a team to Pamplona to see how many partners could survive a bull running?
