The Effect Of Ceo And Cfo Resignations On Going Concern Opinions, Joseph D. Beams, Yun-Chia Yan, Wachira Boonyanet, Pongprot Chatraphorn

School of Accountancy Faculty Publications

Anecdotal evidence suggests that the resignation of a top executive increases a firm’s likelihood of failure. When auditors perceive an increased likelihood of failure, a going concern modified audit opinion is issued. This study tests the relationship between top management resignations and the issuance of going concern audit opinions. The study uses financially distressed firms in the United States from 2008-2010 and a logistic regression model to test the relationship. The findings show a positive relationship between CFO resignations and firms receiving a going concern audit opinion even after controlling for other predictors of a going concern audit opinion. However, …

New Strategic Role For Hr: Leading The Employer-Branding Process, Wayne F. Cascio, Brooke Z. Graham

Organization Management Journal

Increasingly, organizations are focusing on the implications of their employer brands and the processes that will differentiate them from competitors in order to offer a more attractive place for top talent to work.

Gleaning As A Transformational Business Model For Solidarity With The Poor And Marginalized, Bruce D. Baker Oct 2016

Gleaning As A Transformational Business Model For Solidarity With The Poor And Marginalized, Bruce D. Baker

SPU Works

“Gleaning” refers to the mandate within the Mosaic Law that harvesters should leave behind “gleanings” for the sake of the poor who subsist on the literal and figurative margins of society. Although this biblical mandate is generally neglected and considered irrelevant in modern business practice, it holds powerful lessons to help guide modern businesses into transformational solidarity with the poor and marginalized. This paper interprets the biblical significance of gleaning, to discern how the principles of gleaning, though rooted in ancient agrarian culture, might be applicable to modern business which is generally far removed from agriculture. The exegesis and analysis …
