An Associative Bookkeeping Day


with Arthur Edwards and Stephen Torr

 Stroud, UK. 9.30am-5pm, Saturday April 10, 2010

 Stephen Torr is a self-employed accountant whose diverse clients include Waldorf Schools, employment agencies, charities and large-scale companies. He has a BA (Hons) in Accounting & Financial Management and Economics from Sheffield University.

 Arthur Edwards is a director of the Centre for Associative Economics. He gives courses in financial literacy, has a Masters degree in economics (focused on Rudolf Steiner’s monetary analysis) from Buckingham University and a Diploma in Associative Economics.

Open to all and practically focused, this workshop explores the why and how of accounting from the perspective of Rudolf Steiner’s economic thinking. It is designed for individuals and enterprises wanting to adopt an associative approach to the accounting of their activities and includes ‘walk-throughs’ on the logic of double-entry bookkeeping and the use of an accounting template to promote associative thinking. Benefits of attendance range from the technical matters (e.g. data processing) to managerial issues (cash flow and capitalization) and overall strategy (combining ‘core values’ and financial planning).
