Book excerpt: Not just an accountant is an incisive, no-holds-barred account of Indias eleventh comptroller and auditor general and a symbol of the anti-corruption movement, Vinod Rai. Through a narrative, rich in anecdote and inside information, Rai sheds light on the major scams that shook the country. Among the case studies-chosen for the diversity of failures they highlight are - the procedural irregularities in the issuance of licenses for second generation spectrum allotment, the last minute quick-fixes in the conduct of the XIX commonwealth games, the loss of national resources while allocating coal blocks, the flouting of systems and the clear display of crony capitalism in the exploration of hydrocarbon and the tragic tale of civil aviation in India. Through these illustrations, Rai wishes to not only expose government malfeasance, but also probe the mandate of the CAG as a watchdog. Equally, he hopes to push for long-term solutions to corruption and bring home the urgent need for ethics-for the pursuit of excellence, accountability, probity and transparency within governments, the bureaucracy, corporate enterprises and public life. Interesting facts A blow-by-blow, explosive, yet thoughtful account that sheds new light on the scams that shook India - 2G, coalgate, civil aviation, the conduct of the XIX commonwealth games and hydrocarbon contracts. Explodes the myth of accountability in contemporary Indian governance. Written by the eleventh CAG of India and a symbol of the anti-corruption movement, Vinod Rai. Presents long-term solutions for the future, so as to contain procedural irregularities within the government and corporate enterprises. Provides a roadmap for good governance, important for the growth of the nation. Exhorts younger professionals / administrators to strive for excellence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE CEO WANTED A CONTROLLER TO BE MORE THAN JUST AN ACCOUNTANT. WOULD SHE BE ABLE TO MEET THOSE EXPECTATIONS? After three years on the job, Marcella was comfortable and confident in her role as controller of PlumbCo, a $20 million manufacturer and distributor of plumbing products. That all changed, however, when a new CEO arrived and she found that his view of a financial executive's role was dramatically different than that of her previous boss. He expected her to not only be a highly effective accountant, but also a dynamic, value-adding member of PlumbCo's management team. Could she move beyond the "controller" stereotype and become a true management accountant, not just a "bean counter?" Her financial accounting background had not prepared her for such a role, but a chance meeting with an elderly, one-armed mentor, known simply as "the Major," helped her escape conventional thinking and embark on an adventure that took her into all aspects of PlumbCo's business. What obstacles will she face? What solutions will she develop? Will she see above and beyond an accountant's conventional thinking, rise to the occasion, and meet the CEO's expectations? And what will it take for her to make this transformation?
