27TH ANNUAL ETHICS RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM
The Symposium is held in conjunction with the Public Interest Section and highlights the role of ethics, accountability, responsibility, and the impact of accounting on society. These themes have never been more important and play a critical role in investigating causes and consequences of (un) ethical practice and policy at the systemic, organizational, and individual levels.
The Ethics Symposium Coordinators, Mike Ruff and Cassandra Rohland have put together an exciting program, including an opening address by Linda Biek, Director for the International Ethics Standards Board of Accountants (IESBA). Linda will speak on Advancing the Centrality of Ethics for a More Sustainable Future.
In addition to the paper sessions, another highlight will be a Whistleblowing Panel coordinated by Steve Mintz. Panelists include Cynthia Cooper (WorldCom whistleblower and a Time Magazine Person of the Year in 2002) Anthony Menendez (Haliburton Whistleblower), and Robert Conway, Author of Truth About Public Accounting – Understanding and Managing the Risks the Auditors Bring to the Audit. The Public Interest Section is grateful to Steve Mintz for organizing this distinguished panel.
The Symposium will be held in person in Denver, Colorado on Sunday, August 6th, right before the 2023 AAA Annual Meeting. Symposium registration fee includes Breakfast and the Accounting Exemplar Award Luncheon.
Questions can be sent to the Ethics Research Symposium Co-Chairs Cassandra Rohland, University of Massachusetts-Lowell, cassandra_rohland@uml.edu Michael Ruff, Northeastern University, michaelfruff@gmail.com
