Why Does an Accountant Need EI for
Sustainable Productivity?

There is a changing dynamics in the global workspace and this is gradually
changing the scope of work of the accountant.

There is now a bifurcation between an accountant of the 90s and the
accountant now.

Since the 90s , there is an evolving dynamics in the role of the accountant away
from the traditional role which is restricted to the provision of financial
information and analysis.

The reason for this is borne out of the changing dynamics of marketing as well
as the recognition that the accountant interfaces with others in the discharge
of his/her duties.

The accountant’s environment is swayed by what we call PESTEL – political, Economic, Social, Technological, Environmental, and Legal.

literacy, identifying and organizing information, analysis and interpretation of data, and ethical reasoning.
