Advancing the study of decision making informed by business and economic analysis, now with a major program in accounting.

📚 Just finished reading Nick Hillman's insightful review of Sam Freedman's new book, "Failed State: Why nothing works and how to fix it". Freedman, a former student of Hillman's, offers a meticulously researched critique of the UK's central government and its overpowering control over local entities. Hillman highlights Freedman's journey from a right-wing lobbyist to a critical commentator, emphasising the book's strengths in analysing the unhealthy central-local government relationship. While Freedman's solutions for parliamentary reform may feel underwhelming, his call for less central micromanagement resonates strongly. A key takeaway for the higher education sector: preserving institutional autonomy is crucial amidst increasing central oversight. This book is a must-read for policymakers, especially as we navigate the complexities of government intervention and educational autonomy. #HigherEducation #Government #Policy #BookReview #Leadership #InstitutionalAutonomy https://lnkd.in/gcabqsy6

The UTS Finance Department welcomes Renee Adams from the University of Oxford who has been invited to present a #research #seminar on Wednesday 28th August from 12 noon (Australian Eastern Standard Time). This will be a face-to-face seminar. The seminar will be held in room CB08.08.03, Level 8, Building 8, 14-28 Ultimo Rd, Ultimo, Sydney (Campus map: https://lnkd.in/gj43i5-Z). To attend in person please RSVP to Cassie Sloane ([email protected]). Renee will be presenting her paper "Directors Discussing Diversity" written with co-authors: Thomas Mosk, Queen Mary University of London Eleanor Murray, University of Oxford Ken Okamura, University of Oxford The authors examine whether costs of #advocacy affect the likelihood a board member speaks about #diversity. The authors parse 5,298 board meeting minutes of 146 UK National Health Service hospital trusts between 2014 and 2021 to identify when individual trust #directors speak about diversity. Female and ethnic minority directors are more likely to discuss diversity. But their willingness to speak is almost entirely driven by their role. Advocacy may increase when there is greater societal and regulatory pressure for diversity. The results highlight that relying on lived experience may not be sufficient to achieve organizational #inclusiveness goals. #finance #ethnicminorities
