Managing Accountants Effectively

Abstract

The accountants′ world is changing greatly as a result of, inter alia, emerging technologies, global competition, increasing complexity, dynamic effects, dramatic growth, and new laws. To manage accountants effectively in this evolving environment, new techniques are needed to support and supplant the traditional techniques. The functions and characteristics of accountants differ in many ways from those of other employees, and these differences must be accommodated to manage accountants effectively.
