Michlie Ranieri advises accounting firm leaders on organizational transformation that increases capacity and improves firm performance by strengthening the infrastructure behind client work. Through SquareBiz Advisory, she works directly with partners and firm leadership to identify structural constraints and implement practical improvements across tax, audit, and advisory practices. Her approach integrates organizational design, operating model improvement, workforce strategy, and technology adoption to help firms scale without overloading partners or adding unnecessary overhead. Drawing on executive experience across professional services environments, she focuses on building sustainable systems — including workflow structure, succession pipelines, partner leverage, and practical AI adoption — that improve engagement, retention, and long-term firm value. Her perspective is grounded in experience inside middle-market and Fortune 500 professional services environments and through advisory work alongside accounting firms and industry professionals. SquareBiz works exclusively in an advisory capacity, providing senior-level guidance that is practical, embedded, and more directly aligned with firm leadership than traditional consulting models. Michlie holds a master’s degree from Penn State and completed undergraduate studies at New York University and Fordham University. She is Prosci Certified in change management and holds SPHR, SHRM-SCP, Project Management, Kolbe Certified™, and SquareBiz® Leadership Alignment System training.
