Humanistic Management Fellowships

#humanisticmgmt2

The International Humanistic Management Association (IHMA) is dedicated to promoting a new vision of management in which all life is respected, human dignity is protected, and human flourishing is promoted.  The IHMA fellows program supports this mission by creating a community of support and encouragement.  We envision an ecosystem that facilitates the exchange of ideas, promotes mentorship and develops innovative projects for the expansion of humanistic management and the dissemination of improved  management practices.
