In February it was my honor and pleasure to Chair the first face-to-face meeting of the Board of Directors during my term. We had a two-day meeting in Amman, Jordan, well hosted by our Executive Director, Reema Nasser, and our Executive Support Khuzaima Zaghlawan. In addition to our regular business, we focused on discussions about the strategy of ICMCI in order to focus our precious resources on the largest payoff for the advancement of professional management consulting …
We reaffirmed our strategic vision:
ICMCI will be a leader in the development of management consulting as a profession that drives social and economic success
In addition, we simplified our Mission Statement – the business we are in – to:
Building the profile, recognition and influence of the profession and its practitioners globally

Membership Committee initiates two important projects
Many people may assume the work of the membership committee is administrative and routine, approving new applications to become a member Institute, or renewing IMC certification, after the tri-annual QAC assessment. In addition to these regular activities, this committee is working on two interesting and important projects:
1. Proactive membership initiative
2. Members’ KPI and best practices initiative
Both of these projects are underway and will help to strengthen CMC-Global and our member IMCs.
