The Accountability Institute (TAI)

Current business and accounting education models, exacerbated through the commercialisation of education providers, perpetuates traditional, mono-cultural accounting and economic models. Performance measurement systems for University academics tend to favour quantitative, capital markets based research required for publication in the dominant US-based journals, further feeding such perpetuation.

We see future-oriented education as the perfect lever for change. We can not only help by developing more responsible future decision-makers through opening up students’ minds to critical and holistic thinking. But we can also inspire and collaborate with our fellow educators to multiply such efforts.

For this purpose, we created The Accountability Institute as a progressive forward-thinking educative space for creating new forms of transformative learning. TAI's vision is to develop a holistic language for reporting and decision-making that extends beyond money. To achieve this we foster collaborations between art, science, technology and economics, bringing these fields into conversation to create a new language – a language of accountability. With this vision in mind we aim to redefine business and accounting education for new generations of responsible decision makers, provide a platform for innovative business and accounting educators, and bring holistic visioning and development to accounting educators, professional bodies and standard setters.
