6. Multiple PERSPECTIVES are essential ... an ORGANIZATION perspective (which already exists for money transactions) a PEOPLE perspective; a PROCESS perspective; a PRODUCT perspective; and, a PLACE perspective. MULTI DIMENSION IMPACT ACCOUNTING

7. TRIPLE BOTTOM LINE (TBL) The idea of the Triple Bottom Line PROFIT, PEOPLE and PLANET has been around since the 1990s*. This is good, but while it broadens the scope of the metrics it is limited to the single perspective, that of the ORGANIZATION. MULTI DIMENSION IMPACT ACCOUNTING * When it was first described by John Elkington

23. SO How do we go from an economy where there is a singular focus on PROFIT to something that embraces ALL the dimensions of the global complex socio-enviro-economic system? How do these all come together as a single coherent system? MULTI DIMENSION IMPACT ACCOUNTING

24. SO What is the PEOPLE perspective? What is the ORGANIZATION perspective? What is the PRODUCT perspective? What is the PROCESS perspective? What is the PLACE perspective? How do these all come together as a single coherent system? MULTI DIMENSION IMPACT ACCOUNTING
