Keynote speakers
- Professor (Honorary) Alan Lowe
- Alastair Rhodes
Alan holds an Honorary Professorship at RMIT, Melbourne. He is currently Outgoing Editor at the British Accounting Review having served as Joint Editor from 2012 to 2021.
Alan’s goals as an academic have been to focus on real world investigations using mainly case research and interviews. An overarching objective of this stream of research is to identify how interdisciplinary research can be made more effective by combining different research traditions, from Accounting, Management, Information Systems to advance understandings of the shortcomings of an excessive reliance on more traditional economic and rigid managerialist thinking. Publications have included 12 A* (ABDC journal rankings (Australian Business Deans Council)) papers published or accepted over 2018/2021.
