What is SAM?
SAM® was founded in 1912 by the colleagues and
disciples of Frederick Taylor, the "Father of Scientific
Management." It is a non-profit organization run and advanced
by hundreds of volunteers.
Members come from a variety of disciplines -- productions, finance,
marketing, accounting, research and development, entrepreneurship, -- but
share a common bond of interest in becoming stronger managers. SAM
builds bridges among academicians, practitioners, and students not only to
better share management expertise, but also to develop and promote new
management ideas.
SAM abounds with opportunities for professional development.
You will meet management and academic leaders from around the world; share
your thoughts with your peers through presentations, publications, and
interactive sessions at the local and national level; help students and
others develop management expertise; and define and guide management
thinking into the future.
We believe that every individual interested in management should belong to
SAM in addition to any other association in his/her area of
specialization.
Mission Statement: To provide an opportunity for the members to
increase management skills and expertise through participation in programs
and services designed to improve the professional quality of their
knowledge, performance, and leadership ability.
