E-business planning and accountants: the balance with performance

Paul A. Phillips

International Journal of Business Performance Management, 2004, vol. 6, issue 1, 43-55

Abstract: Despite calls for greater accounting involvement in the formulation, implementation, and evaluation of strategies, there has been a paucity of empirical research to support such an assertion. This paper, in the context of the new economy, uses data derived from a survey of accountants who attended a Conference entitled "The e-business revolution" to explore the association between the level of e-business planning and business performance. Analyses of data generated from 68 accountants reveal that there is a significant relationship between the e-business planning characteristics of: formality, participation and thoroughness with business performance.
