ACCOUNTING THE LIMITS OF ACCOUNTING

Abstract

How to assess the performance of others has been an exercise at the heart of managerial ambitions for much of this century. More recently it has been an insistent demand driving the growth of performance indicators in the UK's public sector. But the accountancy‐based solutions currently favoured place unrealistic expectations on what they can deliver.
