Research

Research Philosophy

In the social science world there is an ongoing debate to which is the most appropriate standpoint from the views of positivism and interpretativism. My own view as a researcher is guided by both views as such I have developed into both philosophical paradigms. I have used various methods and lens to devele into the understanding of accounting and business within the social setting.

PHD Thesis

o2020- Doctor of Philosophy (Accounting)

Topic of Dissertation:

“An appreciative inquiry into the current and future roles of the professional accountant in the SME sector”

The PhD is one of the first of South Africa and pioneers in the combination of accountancy and psychology in a post modern action research setting. It had two phases and lends itself to behavioral accounting. One supervisor was from accountancy and the other was the head of industrial psychology and people management at UJ. He is well renowned for this method of using appreciative inquiry in positive organizational psychology. The PhD has been well received. It also makes a significant contribution to the accountancy profession within the business landscape. I have managed to submit 5 articles out of it,with a further 3 in progress .

The research was commissioned by the Institute of Internal Auditors' headquarters in the USA. Leading internal audit academics were approached to be part of the team. I was one of the academics identified to conduct the Africa component of the research. This was a major global project; where 42 audit committee members, chief audit executives, and representatives in leadership were interviewed across the globe. This research report provided an in-depth analysis of the factors and rationale behind the development of the profession and sought to identify opportunities for the transfer of success stories to the rest of the internal audit community. The in-depth analysis was based on interviews with members of the internal audit profession as well as chairs and members of audit committees in seven geographical areas: Africa, Asia-Pacific, Eastern Europe, and Central Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, Middle East, United States, and Canada, and Western Europe.
