Braswell Philosophy Society and the Department of Philosophy Forum - Cynthia Tessien

Cynthia Tessien, professor of practice, Department of Accountancy in the Undergraduate Program at Wake Forest University School of Business will speak on "Accounting, Business, and YOU" Thursday, Nov. 10, 2022 at 7:00 p.m. in Tribble Hall B316.

Abstract: What makes a business successful? Cash? Culture? Employees? Though these are good answers, none of these matter unless a business aligns with underlying moral values. Because of this, executives of a business need to make the right decisions and uphold the organizational and ethical values as well as theirs when it comes to hiring, firing, applying accounting treatments, etc. Only in this manner, can all customers, investors, vendors, employees be satisfied with the operation of a business.
