AFAANZ 2020 Conference Update

 

AFAANZ supports a number of activities each year, two of our most important events are our annual conference and doctoral symposium, which was scheduled to run from 1 to 8 July at Crown in Melbourne, Australia. The Board has been convening regularly to discuss the impact of the Covid-19 virus situation on our ability to deliver a successful conference with the current government restrictions in place.

 

We have now agreed that this year’s conference will now take place in virtual format in the same timeslot and will be FREE to all AFAANZ members. In 2021, the AFAANZ Conference and doctoral symposium will be hosted at Crown in Melbourne.

 

We are now working through the options and formats for the virtual conference in July 2020 and will continue to provide updates.

 

We hope our members and broader AFAANZ community are safe and well. Please look after yourselves, your loved ones, and the other communities you are a part of.

 

Best wishes

The AFAANZ Board

2020 Performance Management Association (PMA) Conference & Special Issue of Management Accounting Research (MAR)

Performance Measurement in Dynamic Environments

The 2020 PMA Conference and related Special Issue of MAR welcome research on performance measurement and management in a dynamic environment. In a dynamic environment, designing effective performance management systems is inevitably even more challenging. The research addressing this challenge is concerned with how performance measurement is or could be used in fast-moving environments. Technological disruptions; globalization (or recent impediments or reversals in some cases, such as ‘reshoring’ and ‘slowbalization’); new forms of collaboration between organizations in supply chains and in broader networks of organizations; availability of more data through social media and the Internet of Things, are but examples of such challenging contexts.

We are interested in a wide range of topics and we welcome studies drawing on any relevant theoretical source discipline and employing any relevant research method, including case/field studies, surveys, archival studies, experiments, ethnographic and historical papers, as well as strongly conceptual descriptive work or thought pieces.

PhD Assistance: A project is inviting participants to take part in a research study on “The Role of Strategic Leadership in Cyber Security in Financial Organisations”. Please find attached the Participants Information Sheet and Interview Questions for more information and contact details.
