Reviews / Votes
Six papers examine the role of management accountants in risk management practices, assess how parent companies use performance measurement and management systems to monitor their foreign subsidiaries, compare the performance of operational restructuring led by new versus continuing CEOs, and analyze the performance measures used by a development bank in Africa. The longest paper presents a framework for understanding how sustainability control systems can be used in proactive strategic responses to corporate sustainability pressures. -- Annotation (c)2018 * (protoview.com) *More details
