He was renowned for his zest for life, sense of fun, and care for his students and staff. On his retirement, the University of Queensland established the Frank Finn Chair in Finance and the Frank Finn Scholarship to support Commerce students in their Honours Year.</p> <p style="margin: 0; mso-line-height-alt: 16.8px;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0;">Frank’s impact will live on in through his individual research but most of all in the enduring culture that his passion for research helped create.

While we typically focus on the development of competence in academics, we often don’t pay a lot of attention to confidence. Working in an environment that consists of receiving constant critical feedback and at times unfounded criticism from students, university administrators, colleagues, practice, and especially reviewers, can have a profound influence on an academics’ confidence. There is often very little institutional support to help academics navigate this adversarial environment: unless you’re lucky enough to have a great mentor. The challenges associated with the pandemic have only served to make this structural problem more salient. Buzzwords such as grit, resilience, and antifragile are bandied about as solutions to this problem. However, how we achieve these outcomes is less clear. How do we build and maintain confidence in such a critical environment and not just give up, lead a life of ‘quiet desperation’, or let a lack of confidence consistently impact our teaching, research and engagement performance?</p> <p style="margin: 0;">This workshop will draw together a panel of experts, moderated by Professor David Brown (UTS, Sydney), to explore the research on confidence, it’s interaction with competence, and ways, as a community of scholars, we can increase our overall level of confidence.</p> </div> </div> </td> </tr> </table> <table class="image_block block-2" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace: 0pt;

This research is funded by CPA Australia and is a global study examining the (potential) use of digital technologies for sustainability reporting.</p> <p style="margin: 0; mso-line-height-alt: 16.8px;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0;">We are conducting interviews with various professionals with expertise on this topic from around the world. We need people with expertise either in accounting, finance, sustainability, information technology or information systems.</p> <p style="margin: 0; mso-line-height-alt: 16.8px;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0;">Interview: The interview may take around 45 minutes and can be conducted via MS Teams / Zoom / Skype or telephone. Your rights and interests as a research participant are protected by this project being compliant with the rules and guidelines of Swinburne University’s Human Research Ethics Committee.</p> <p style="margin: 0; mso-line-height-alt: 16.8px;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0;">What you should do next: Please reply to the email given below (preferably including a contact phone number) indicating your willingness to be interviewed for this research study. More information about this study is attached to this message.</p> <p style="margin: 0; mso-line-height-alt: 16.8px;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0;">We will then contact you to organise a time convenient for you for conducting the interview. We are available most weekdays during your office hours (in your time zone) but please note that the research team is based in Australia. </p> <p style="margin: 0; mso-line-height-alt: 16.8px;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0;">Your privacy is important to us-please be assured that your responses will be anonymous and will be kept confidential.</p> <p style="margin: 0; mso-line-height-alt: 16.8px;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0;">Purpose of the research: Advancements in digital technologies are ushering in a diverse range of solutions that greatly enhance the ability of companies to predict, monitor, and report on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) risks facing their businesses. However, a recent report by the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) found that the deployment of digital technologies to report on sustainability information is insufficient. This is despite regulators and stakeholders increasingly requiring companies to undertake ESG reporting, to standardise it, as well as to be more transparent about the sustainability of their own activities and supply chains.</p> <p style="margin: 0;

With 17 holistic goals and 169 targets, the SDG agenda aspires to stimulate action in areas that are of critical importance for humanity and the planet including hunger, poverty, inequality, health and well-being, clean energy and quality education (United Nations, 2015). Given the critical importance of SDGs, this initiative has drawn considerable attention in the policy debate and research. A number of conceptual studies have set the agenda and directions for advancing and achieving SDGs and the role of accounting and finance therein. However, little is known about how organisations, especially in the public, non-governmental and hybrid sectors are addressing and implementing the SDG goals and targets, and account for sustainability performance</p> <p style="margin: 0;
