A Profile Of Project Manager Work Engagement: A Field Survey, Thomas G. Henkel, James W. Marion Jr

Opportunity Scholarship: Ashley Huntington, Usu Jon M. Huntsman School Of Business, Ashley Huntington

Jon M. Huntsman School of Business News Collection

In Spring of 2014 I took the opportunity to go on a Go Global trip with the Huntsman School of Business to London. In preparation, I applied and received an Opportunity Scholarship from the Huntsman School. This financial aid made a great difference in my ability to afford the Go Global trip. My scholarship covered half of my program's expenses and gave me the financial security to fully enjoy my global experience without the overwhelming stress of making ends meet. This experience was one that changed my life and opened my eyes to the possibilities of global business.

Baseball, Richard C. Crepeau Oct 2014

Baseball, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

There are many terrific and zany baseball quotations that make there way across the nation at this time of year. Between Dizzy Dean, Yogi Berra, and Phil Rizzuto almost all aspects of the game were covered. Broadcasters too have added to the diamond lexicon. My favorite, however, comes from the former pitcher for the Houston Astros and St. Louis Cardinals, the incomparable Joaquin Andujar whose most memorable line covers nearly all of the possibilities of the game.

Does The Adoption Of Ifrs Affect Corporate Social Disclosure In Annual Reports?, Joyce Van Der Van Der Laan Smith, Andrea L. Gouldman, Rasoul H. Tondkar Oct 2014

Does The Adoption Of Ifrs Affect Corporate Social Disclosure In Annual Reports?, Joyce Van Der Van Der Laan Smith, Andrea L. Gouldman, Rasoul H. Tondkar

Accounting Faculty Publications

In this exploratory study we investigate the impact of the implementation of IFRS on corporate social disclosures (CSD) within the context of stakeholder theory. We measure the level of CSD in annual reports using a disclosure instrument based on the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development report “Guidance on Corporate Responsibility Indicators in Annual Reports”. We find that IFRS adoption had a differential effect on CSD based on a firm's institutional setting i.e., the stakeholder–management relationship prevalent in their institutional environment. Firms in the stakeholder countries did not have a significant change in the level of CSD following the …
