Opis

Performance management is key to the ongoing success of any organisation, allowing it to meet its strategic objectives by designing and implementing management control systems. This book goes beyond the usual discussion of performance management in the context of accounting and finance, also focusing on strategic management, human resource management, and performance management in developing countries. With a global mix of world-renowned researchers, this book systematically covers the what, the who, the where, and the why of performance management and control (PMC) systems. A comprehensive, state-of-the-art collection edited by a leading expert in the field, this book is a vital resource for all scholars, students, and researchers with an interest in business and management.
