Performance measurement is a critical dimension of management control theory and practice, and one of the most widely researched areas of management accounting. The Handbook on Performance Measurement for Management Control provides the foundation for the next generation of research in management accounting on performance measurement by canvassing the contemporary landscape of performance measurement research and outlining future research opportunities. Contributions from leading scholars provide insights into key contemporary issues such as the use of algorithms in management control, new and innovative data sources and technologies that impact both performance measurement itself, and the way we research it, the way sustainability imperatives impact on performance measurement practice, and designing research for impact, as well as thoughtful reflection on existing bodies of performance measurement research and promising avenues to advance knowledge. This Handbook is an excellent resource for scholars of management accounting. PhD students and junior faculty will find it invaluable for the comprehensive coverage of current thinking and the future research opportunities identified in every chapter.

Measuring and managing the performance of a business is one of the most genuine desires of management. Balanced scorecard, the performance prism and activity-based management are the most popular frameworks in this setting. Based on the findings of R.G. Eccles’ acclaimed "Performance Measurement Manifesto (1991)" this book introduces new contexts and themes of application and presents emerging research areas related to business performance measurement and management, e.g. SMEs and sustainability. As a result of the 1st International Summer School Piero Lunghi on "Perspectives of Business Performance Management" this book is written both for students and academics, as well as for practitioners looking for new, yet proven ways to measure and manage business performance.
