INSTITUTIONAL MEMBERS

ANZAM Executive Members meet with Institutional Members about three times per year. Typically these meetings are held in March/April, June and December (in conjunction with the annual ANZAM Conference).

The format of the ANZAM Institutional Meetings includes a forum and a short business meeting. Each forum focuses on a topic which is relevant and important for Institutional Members with a panel of invited speakers followed by small group conversations with report back, and general discussions. The business meetings highlight progress on ANZAM projects and activities including the annual conference, regional events, awards and publications. Input is invited from Institutional Member Representatives on ANZAM's activities and opportunities for networking are included in the meeting programmes.

Institutional Members Meetings provide opportunities for Institutional Member Representatives to:

• Raise issues of concern, to identify emerging trends and to highlight matters of significance to both the management profession and to business and management tertiary education and research community.
• Input, discuss and disseminate on the structure, content and quality of management academic programs in Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere.
• Input, discuss and disseminate information on mechanisms for funding management research in Australia and New Zealand.
• Input, discuss and disseminate information relating to the recruitment, training, and development of academics in management and related fields.
• Promote community and cooperation among academic, private and public entities mutually concerned with the discipline of management.
• Promote interdisciplinary, cross institutional, and international cooperation in management teaching, research and other relevant activities.
• Consider whether member institutions and/or ANZAM might act in a lobbying capacity over areas of interest and/or concern, and to consider the means through which such activity might best proceed.
