Non-IFRS and changes in accounting institutions : Lessons from Nokia
2022
We analyse the lessons learned from Nokia to illustrate the changing focus in accounting and organisational practices that affect the perceptions of relevant accounting work and the key measures of success. In the course of an analysis covering 25 years, the introduction of management accounting innovations was first emphasised regarding managerial relevance but were later replaced by financial accounting emphasis and innovations (e.g. non-IFRS reporting). Our data includes public reports, newspaper articles and 21 interviews made between 1996 and 2019. We present a framework for analysing shifts in the focus of accounting. Our case analysis on changing accounting practices, on shifting pe…
Institutional systems inducing R&D in Amazon- the role of an investor surplus toward stakeholder capitalization
2020
Abstract Amazon demonstrated a conspicuous increase in R&D and became the world's top R&D firm in 2017 with a skyrocketing increase in market capitalization, making it close to being the world's biggest company. Such a remarkable accomplishment can be attributed to Amazon's institutional systems, which orchestrate techno-financing systems that fuse a unique R&D transformation system and a sophisticated financing system centered on the cash conversion cycle (CCC). These institutional systems support and endorse aggressive investment in R&D that incorporates the characteristics of uncertainty, a long lead time, and successive inflows of very large amounts of funding without interruption. Whil…
The role of negative and positive forms of power in supporting CSR alignment and commitment between large firms and SMEs
2018
Do large firms exert power to shape the CSR behavior of their SME partners?” We answer this question by proposing a model built on the stakeholder theory and the shareholder theory, and go on to explain how this impact influences the commitment of the SME towards their large partner. The model highlights the central role that different forms of power exercised by the large firm play in the process. A survey of 291 SMEs confirms the key hypotheses, including the mediating role of reward power. The effects of coercive power are noteworthy and they illustrate the complex and competing forces at play in influencing CSR behavioral change in SMEs. The research makes a novel contribution to practi…

2013
Toimintaympäristön seuranta on aktiivista tietämyksen luomista yritystä ympäröivästä toimintakentästä. Toimintaympäristön seuranta koostuu informaation keräämisestä, prosessoinnista, analysoinnista ja hyödyntämisestä. Jalostamalla irtonaista dataa ja informaatiota yritykselle merkitykselliseksi tietämykseksi, on mahdollista tukea yrityksen päätöksentekoa ja toiminnan suunnittelua. Ennakoiva ja strateginen toimintaympäristön seuranta on näin ollen tarkoituksenmukaista, yrityksen nykytilan ja tulevaisuuden huomioon ottavaa toimintaa, jolla pyritään yrityksen kannattavuuden ja jatkuvuuden varmistamiseen pidemmällä aikavälillä.

Controllers’ role in managerial sensemaking and information trust building in a business intelligence environment
2023
This study explores how an organization’s controllers (management accountants) give sense to the information provided by its business intelligence (BI) system, and thus shape the construction of information trust. A qualitative case study was conducted within a Finnish food manufacturing company, building on the notion of trust related to management accounting information and sensemaking theory. The study was informed through open-ended interviews and an examination of internal accounting and management reports. The authors found that the company used an integrated BI system that enabled the production of information in a timely and perceivably standardized manner. Controllers managed this …
