MANAGEMENT INSTITUTE

Seminar In February

The Canterbury division of the New Zealand Institute of Management will be host in February to the first national annual meeting of the institute to be held away from Wellington. The annual meeting will be held on the evening of February 22, and an all-day seminar will be held on February 23. National councillors, and officers, councillors and members of other divisions are expected to attend the sessions at the Wool Exchange Building, Addington Show Grounds.

At the annual meeting the guest speaker will give an address which will set the theme for the seminar the next day. At the seminar he will be assisted with addresses by several of New Zealand’s leading managers before those attending form discussion groups. As its guest speaker, the division has arranged for Mr G. J. Martin, a partner in Cooper Bros, and Company, accountants, of Sydney. Part of their practice is management services.

Mr Martin qualified as a chartered accountant in London in 1955 and also became a member of the Institute of Cost and Work Accountants. He joined the firm of Cooper Bros, and Company, London, in 1959. Over the last nine years he has been employed in management consultancy in Africa, Asia, Australia and Europe. He has been in Sydney since 1963.

He is a frequent speaker on management subjects, and is joint editor of the management service section of the Institute of Chartered Accountants* Journal in Australia.
