Steve Howe, EY’s U.S. Chairman and Americas Managing Partner,last week shared his thoughts on the election with thefirm’s60,000 U.S. employees, including holdinga private webcast at 9 a.m. themorning after the election.
The U.S. elections process has come to a dramatic conclusion. We all anticipated a historic Presidential election, and indeed it was. The campaign was long, contentious and divisive. The election was a nail- biter, with the results unclear until the middle of the night. This morning I encountered many who stayed up through the night watching the results and yet were here first-thing to join our post-election News You Can Use webcast. Our people were engaged in the election and deeply invested in its outcome.
