     OVERVIEW:
     
     Professor Cote will be discussing the recently revamped 
     core MBA Accounting Course at WSU, Vancouver. This new 
     course explores how accounting information impacts not only 
     strategic decision makers but also a firm's stakeholders. 
     In the face of endless possible data collection, it is 
     essential to assess what should be measured in order to 
     assess performance and progress toward strategic goals, and 
     most fundamentally, to look deeply at what we need to know 
     about the credibility and implicit assumptions in the 
     process of measurement itself.
     
     The course, "Accounting Measurement for Leaders" is a piece 
     of the innovative work being done as part of Aspen 
     Institute CBE's Corporate Governance and Accountability 
     Project.
