An insightful episode of The Bookkeepers’ Podcast, Jo Wood and Zoe Whitman break down the key findings from Xero’s 2025 Accounting and Bookkeeping Industry Report. With Jo’s experience as a member of the Xero Partner Advisory Council (XPAC), the duo take a deep dive into what the latest data reveals about the future of the industry — from growth and technology adoption to advisory services and evolving client needs. Jo and Zoe explore the report’s benchmarks, offering their perspective on where bookkeepers and accountants are thriving and where there's room for improvement. They also reflect on how tech-driven practices are changing the landscape, why some firms are still behind on cloud adoption, and how small practices can turn these trends into opportunities for growth.
