EMA is governed by STATUTES agreed by all members and lodged with the authorities in The Hague, Netherlands
The key components of the statutes are:
Membership is open to national management organisations and applications to join must be made to the Executive Secretariat.
Those organisations must (a) be not for profit, non-governmental and non-religious; (b) have primary activity in the field of management, the organisation of management and the professionalism of management.
These members are ‘lead members’ of EMA. There will ordinarily be one lead member per country.
Where there is no national management organisation in a particular country, then a regional management organisation may become the lead member.
Where there is no national or regional management organisation in a particular country, then an institute or organisation working in a related field, such as management development or human resources, may become the lead member.
Other organisations may apply to join, even in a country where there is already a lead member.
These additional members are known as ‘associate members’. They may include (a) business schools or alumni association which have ‘management’ within their mission; (b) organisations involved in management education and training.
Members of EMA meet in an annual Assembly, hosted by one of the member organisations. The Assembly receives an annual report on EMA activities, discusses management issues as relevant in either a national or pan-European context, and agrees a budget for activities in the coming year.
The Executive Committee meets twice a year. Amongst its tasks are (a) implementation of resolutions of the members taken in the annual Assembly, (b) preparation of an activities programme, (c) consideration of applications for membership, and (d) consideration of the financial accounts of the association.
