Hyderabad Management Association (HMA) was conceptualized 56 years ago, in the year 1964, by a dozen dedicated young managers of the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad, who felt the need for developing managerial skills among young executives and spreading the message of professionalism among the practicing managers with the involvement of academia & industry.
HMA provides a platform for professionals, academia & management students to stay abreast of contemporary management practices and events shaping the profession and its emerging challenges. The plethora of activities undertaken in this context, Management Lecture Meetings, Training Programs, Panel Discussions, Seminars, Conventions, Quiz Programs, Management/Faculty & Student Development Programs etc and this year we will be adding certificate programs in partnership with Business Schools.
The Hyderabad Management Association is affiliated to the All India Management Association (AIMA) New Delhi. AIMA associates with HMA for conduct of regular Joint Programs at Hyderabad.
