Specialist Communities focused on Outcomes

Global NextGen

Talent retention is a vital issue for firms. The NextGen Global community helps firms ensure their succession by developing their next generations’ leadership and business development capacity.

The community, exclusively for NextGenners, equips future leaders with an international perspective. They have access to programs specifically designed for them. In addition, they provide new ideas and knowledge to help grow their business, develop new skills to support their firm and create valuable and lasting contacts with peers at other AGN firms worldwide.

Diversity Group

Today’s major challenge for most practices is growth limited by capacity. As a result, firms are looking into diverse and inclusive teams to drive growth, create a more qualified workforce, reduce staff turnover and bring more creativity.

In an industry primarily led by males, the AGN Women of Impact group provides visibility, guidance and practical approaches to support leading teams in strengthening their cultural and strategic policies to consolidate more diverse leaders and teams.

Geographic & language groups

AGN member firms collaborate on common ground through geographical or language clusters:

UK & Ireland & Australia & New Zealand groups.
Scandinavian, Mandarin and German-speaking groups.

AGN facilitates and manages this collaboration which has resulted in joint marketing, training, problem solving, and sharing of resource and client opportunities.

Member view…
I thought the AGN 2022 World Congress in Athens was excellent; the content was relevant, topical and well-presented. It was obvious that some thought had been put into the planning. The location and organisation was top-class – particularly in keeping delegates informed on a timely basis in respect of complex transport issues. The Metaverse/Futurology session was fascinating and the ‘Transition to Advisory’ session provided valuable key takeaways to future-proof the business. It was a well-attended event, and great to see worldwide friends and colleagues in person again after the Covid-enforced break.
