Irish Academy of Management Whitaker Award
In 2009 the Irish Academy of Management instituted the Irish Academy of Management Whitaker Award and its first recipient was Dr T.K. Whitaker, after whom it is now named. We are currently receiving nominations for the 2013 award, which will be presented at the IAM conference in Waterford Institute of Technology in September 2013.
The Irish Academy of Management Whitaker Award is intended for someone who may not be or have been a member of the IAM but who has made an exceptional, probably life-time, contribution to the practice and/or discipline of management in Ireland and/or to the Irish Academy of Management. The discipline of “management” will be defined in a wide, business, sense.
The closing date for receipt of such nominations, to Dr Joe MacDonagh (joe.macdonagh@it-tallaght.ie), is March 1st 2013. Each person nominated should be proposed and seconded by someone who is a member of the IAM, along with supporting reasons for the nomination/s.
