Excerpt from Participation in the Budgeting Process When It Works and When It Doesn't
In the area of managerial accounting, one concept which has been studied frequently is the issue of participation in the budgeting process. The idea that lower level members in an organization would get a say in the budget formulation, let alone exert the primary influence, would have been abhorrent to the early disciples of the scientific management doctrine. Yet the concept is possibly the most central element in the modern human relations viewpoint, at least as far as management accounting is concerned.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines how employee participation within the budgeting process can both positively and negatively influence an organization's culture, people, and performance. The author provides a framework of factors that determine the effectiveness of employee participation in budgeting. These factors range from cultural (such as workersâ union ties) to interpersonal (such as the locus of decision-making authority). The author also discusses how variables such as environmental stability, organizational structure, and even individual personality traits can influence the success of implementing participatory budgeting. The author concludes that for a participatory budgeting system to be effective, it needs to be tailored to the specific circumstances of the organization. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the design and implementation of participatory budgeting systems. This meticulously researched, highly practical analysis, will prove useful for accounting researchers, consultants, and the accounting profession as a whole.
