Ohio Society's CEO or to Retire

J. Clarke Price, Ohio Society of CPAsThe Ohio Society of CPAs has begun the hunt for a new CEO following the announcement that J. Clark Price, who has spent almost 40 years with the association, will retire on December 31. Price has served as CEO and president since 1990 and joined the organization in 1972 as public relations director. The society has hired Vetted Solutions, a Washington D.C.-based executive search firm to find a successor.

Price has also served since 2001 as chair of the board of Shared Services, a partnership involving the American Institute of CPA and several state societies. Share Services' goal is to reduce costs by sharing resources among the parties. Price is also the immediate past chair of the American Society of Association Executives.

In its announcement, the society listed several legislative wins that it attributed to Price including 2005 tort reform in Ohio that it said protected Ohioans from frivolous lawsuits while the society was also a leader in overhauling the state's tax code. A part of this effort was the replacement of the corporate franchise tax by the Commercial Activities Tax. In 2009, Price and the society's executive board formed the Ohio Budget Advisory Task Force in response to Ohio’s $8-billion-budget crisis. Recommendations for streamlining state and local government and cutting expenses helped drive laws that encourage cost-cutting at all levels of Ohio government.
