BDO Inside Out Podcast:  the Magic of Family Life & the BDO DNA

Peter Van Laer - The magic of Sunday Dinner

As a family man, Peter loves to spend time with his children and grandchildren. Especially on Sundays, when he cooks one of his signature dishes for the whole family. This type of quality time is what counts for him: getting together with family and friends, the spontaneity of organising a BBQ without exactly knowing how many people are joining... It's all about going with the flow and enjoying life.

This magic is also what Peter sees coming back in the BDO atmosphere. Every office he visits, there's always a warm welcome and somebody who makes you feel at ease. You can feel it in the interactions you have with colleagues, at our events for students & clients. It's those small but crucial elements that make life at BDO count. For him, the DNA of a company is probably worth most of what we have.

Listen to Peter's podcast episode to discover his unique look on our BDO DNA and how he sees the future for BDO!  


“The warm approach combined with our high professional standards, that's what sets us apart as a company.”
