Queering Accounting (Nick McGuigan/Alessandro Ghio/Thomas Kern)
Associate Professor Nick McGuigan, Dr. Alessandro Ghio (Monash Business School) & Thomas Kern (The Accountability Institute)
What would a queer perspective of accounting look like? Can heteronormativity in accounting firms be disrupted? How could Queer theory act as a positive force for change in professional service firms?
The Queering Accounting artist-in-residency sets out to playfully investigate creativity, innovation & leadership of LGBTQI accountants through social intercourse, dinner party conversation, public events, future-oriented discussion and visual storyboards.
The identification of potential sources of leadership, creativity and innovation capabilities of LGBTQI people can support organisations to incorporate the challenges of the current fast-changing economy and society, challenging the current heteronormativity present in many professional service firms.
