Management Association of Pakistan

Management Association of Pakistan (formerly West Pakistan Management Association) was formed in 1964 by a small group of dedicated entrepreneurs and senior professional managers, who were keenly aware of the demands that were likely to be made on managerial talent within the country, as a result of the rapid increase in the tempo of industrial activity. The need for such an Association had become pressing because of the important role assigned to the private sector in Pakistan’s plan for development and the declared policy of the Government to encourage the professional managerial class in the country. In the last thirty-six years the Association has established itself as a major forum for training and communication of ideas in the field of management in Pakistan. Its status and contributions are widely recognised.
