Semantic Hygiene in Financial Reporting

As pointed out in a paper published by the Institute of General Semantics by George Doris in the paper, KORZYBSKI AND GENERAL SEMANTICS*, communications is hard.  

Communication is the fight against confusion.  Whether it is the “speaker” versus “listener” or “writer” versus “reader” or “information bearer” versus “information receiver”; there is a process and the process tends to be a struggle.  

But effective communication based on a common, shared understanding has its reward and the problem is solvable.

It takes deliberate conscious effort to maintain semantic hygiene.

The Seattle Method provides the sematic hygiene necessary to effectively implement XBRL-based digital financial reporting.  The Seattle Method leverages the characteristics of financial reporting such as articulation.  This enables the creation of new tools for accounting and audit professionals.
