Clyde Parker presents “The Triple Bottom Line; an emphasis on organizational responsibility”

A big thank you to Clyde Parker for taking time out of his busy schedule and enlightening us and giving examples of "triple bottom line" accounting principals, including expanding the traditional reporting framework to take into account ecological and social performance in addition to financial performance. The event was well-attended by about 20 NCA&T students and senior chapter members.

Thanks Clyde!
