Begin with the End in Mind

Steven Covey in his book Seven Habits of Highly Effective People has indicated the importance of a habit "Begin with the End in Mind". How very true. ARI becomes what it is today because of a vision that one day it will be recognized as an effective Centre of Excellence. Yes, today, as one of MOHE's centres of excellence ARI has been entrusted with important research projects. Today we are in the midst of completing some projects with impact for various organisations in the country: Audit Quality Rating of SME audit firms for MIA/MAREF, Dividend Policy and Corporate Governance Rating for MSWG, SME Financial Management for CPA and Public Sector Accounting and Reporting for Jabatan Akauntan Negara. Well done everyone
