What are some of the different approaches and why are they successful, while other companies fail to create successful customer value and ultimately fail? • How do we measure value from a financial and market(ing) point of view? • How do we set prices? Pricing is a very complex topic and intersects accounting, finance, and marketing.

Sustainability Reporting and Management

ACCT 90031 Sustainability Reporting and Management
Lectured by Jane Hronsky
Delivery mode
On Campus / Offline
Teaching period
Semester 2
Types of assessment
Pre Class Deliverables (40%), Participation in Class (20%), Group Assignment (40%)
What does this subject cover?
Sustainability is inherently interdisciplinary and international. Fundamental to enhancing sustainability is measurement and disclosure of metrics and information that reflect the sustainability performance of organizations. This information allows firm management to efficiently allocate resources to enhance sustainability and external stakeholders to discipline and reward low and high sustainability organizations. Measuring and reporting on sustainability is inherently complex and subjective. The main goal of the course is to provide students with a rigorous conceptual framework to guide both the preparation and use of information that measures sustainability performance. Diverse stakeholders are increasingly demanding information about the broader social and environmental dimensions of organizational performance. Incorporating this information into decision-making is complex because it tends to be non-financial in nature and traditional models tend to focus on financial information. This course will investigate issues associated with production, reporting, and use of sustainability related information for decision-making. At a broader level, the course will help students to develop their critical thinking and analytical skills to help them apply their knowledge to settings where extant models do not fit well.
What to do?
• Be on time o If you will miss a class, please email Jane either in advance, or directly after the session to make up for the content missed. You will receive a zero for class participation on any day missed. • Be fully prepared o Complete readings before each seminar, along with any deliverables o Complete your revision of content discussed in the seminars. Consult with Jane if there is anything that is not clear. • Be an active participant. o All class sessions will be highly interactive. You will be expected to work with different groups, develop arguments supporting your ideas, and present your (and your group’s) work. Groups will either be randomly assigned or will be based upon yourgroup for the final research project. • Be considerate and respectful o Switch off (or turn to silent) your mobile phones oPlease do not text or check messages, emails, or surf the net during class. Note that university guidelines suggest 2 to 3 hours of independent study for every hour of class time, so this means you should spend at least 6-9 hours studying and prepping the subject in your own time per seminar, including readings and preparation of deliverables.

Topics to be covered include drivers of change, the role of internal and external change agents, tools for successful change management, and the implementation and consequences of specific change initiatives.

With 12.5 credit points, the standard time allocation would suggest that you should plan to devote an average of 7.5 hours of revision time to the subject each week, on average, to achieve excellent progress.

I think you will find that some weeks heavier and others lighter, however you will still want to plan for a minimum of several hours each week to work on the readings and exercises. Group assignments will need coordination and discussion, and often additional time, however this also offers you the chance to make new friends and network for the future.
