NMA…THE Leadership Development Organization Creating Leadership Opportunities… together
What is NMA? A not-for-profit, professional association where people: • Learn to work together in a global economy • Understand the attributes of great leadership • Develop their leadership competencies • Appreciate the power of interpersonal communication when coupled with technology
NMA’s objective... • To utilize our unique chapter-based concept to provide a different kind of leadership development experience
How? • By supporting your already ongoing employee development initiatives… • and providing the “experiential” piece that allows people to grow and feel ownership in their own development.
Based on what? • People perform best when they are “engaged”… • People CHOOSE to be engaged based upon how they “feel” about their colleagues and their employer… • NMA chapters play a key role in helping people feel that they are part of a team.
And we all know… Businesses grow when employees are innovative and creative. Only happy, challenged, and engaged employees are innovative and creative. NMA Leadership Development Chapters foster the environment that makes it all come together!!!
NMA chapters… • Foster interpersonal connections… that lead to collaboration and cooperation… which builds trust • Support a collegial atmosphere that breeds creativity • Assist in unleashing talent and nurturing innovation • Showcase their ROI when that innovation bolsters the bottom line
The NMA connection… • NMA Chapters help employees become invested…in the chapter…in the organization…in the culture…and in their personal and professional work lives. • When people “feel” opportunities, they can choose to become ENGAGED – committed to one another and to the mission. • Engaged employees “give it their all”.
The NMA connection… • Employees connect with one another • The chapter links ongoing learning to HR initiatives • The organization is “seen” in the community
Thus… An NMA chapter is your PARTNER in creating the culture and conditions that make an employee WANT to contribute!
