Reengineering Business Reporting: Toward a New Paradigm for
Measuring, Managing, and Communicating Firm Performance

Description/Objectives:
Building on the work originally done for the EBR consortium of the AICPA, we debate a set of ideas and visions that can begin the process of reengineering business reporting. Our intention here is to lay out some of the larger forces that will shape any new business reporting model and to describe a general framework to organize the thinking of this nascent movement. It is certainly possible, that down the road everything we say here will be debated and rejected, but that would be a true measure of success and not of failure. What this session is intended to do is to invite the participation of all those who feel that we can and must do better in the way in which we measure, manage ,and communicate firm performance in the 21st century.

Presenters:
Michael Alles, Rutgers University; Miklos Vasarhelyi, Rutgers University.
