Masterclass: How Do We Integrate Mental Health, Wellbeing And Performance Within Professional Service Firms?

 

If you could change one thing in your organisation that would support wellbeing across the board, what would it be? The answer could well be, support women.

 

Turnover, burnout and lack of diversity are among the key management challenges facing professional service and accounting firms right now. Using recent research undertaken with women accountants, Department of Accounting Associate Professor Carly Moulang and lecturer Dr Alessandro Ghio will discuss the ‘missing links' – key absent practices that women most desire that also demonstrate a clear return on investment for the entire business.

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.
