DOES ACCOUNTING ADD VALUE TO BRITISH BUSINESS?
There has been a good deal of relatively informal coverage of the
changing role of the finance function in the national press, the
professional press and in presentations made at a variety of conferences.
However, there is little by way of focused guidance to provide a
greater understanding of which steps should be followed in order
that the finance function (broadly defined) might add value in enhancing
organisational effectiveness.
