About the National Management Association The National Management Association (NMA) is a professional leadership development association headquartered in Dayton, Ohio. The Association is a national, not-for-profit organization serving over 25,000 customers nationwide. Members belong to company-based, in-house chapters, or are members of community chapters. An Individual Membership Program is also available. NMA's founder, Charles Kettering became a pioneer in human resource development when he introduced the idea of professional development for first line supervisors in Dayton in 1919. That idea was so significant that it rapidly spread across the nation, and the National Association of Foremen was formed in 1925. In the late '50s, the Association adopted a broader mission to include all levels of management. In today's team environment, we have many chapters that operate as employee organizations open to all employees and others that operate as community organizations open to all professionals within the local community. Consequently, the professional development of individuals, central to the founding of NMA, can now reach all levels of the organization! Through the chapter-based experience, NMA provides management and leadership development opportunities to help sponsoring organizations discover, develop, and showcase leadership talent. NMA's customers span the entire United States. Most are from over 120 affiliated chapters representing nearly 1,000 organizations and include healthcare, utilities, manufacturing, communications, government, aerospace, and defense. What can NMA do for you?
