Evaluating the performance of employers of chartered accounting firms in Australia

Article Abstract:

This study contains the Australian evidence of an international study aimed at identifying those variables which influence the perceived performance of employees of chartered accounting firms. Perceived performance is hypothesized to be a function of perceived effort, perceived ability and perceived luck. The results strongly support the view that effort and ability as perceived by employees must have an impact on all performance measures, while luck is perceived to have a major role in promotion prospects.
