This volume contains exemplary papers that were presented at the 2017 Conference on Performance Measurement and Management Control in Nice, France, by researchers in the field from North America, South America, Africa, Europe, and Asia.
This book represents a collection of innovative research in management control and performance measurement, and provides a significant contribution to the growing literature in the area. The collection also covers a representative set of topics, research settings, and research methods.
The editors hope that this book will stimulate researchers to continue the search for additional understanding of performance measurement and management control, and provide guidance for both academic researchers and managers as they work toward improving organizations.
Selected from presentations at a September 2017 performance measurement and management control conference (ninth of a series) in Nice, France, 10 papers examine the relevance of research in this area. In sections on critical management challenges, performance measurement instruments, and specific settings, they explore such topics as whether motives for adopting the balanced scorecard affect its development and use, strategy and organizational performance: the role of risk management system development, integrated reporting and sustainability reporting: a global assessment, managerial control systems in family business: state of the art, and accounting for the construction of research quality in Australia's research assessment exercise. -- Annotation ©2018 * (protoview.com) *
