NZIM ; A Model of Excellence - NZIM shows how; A New Zealand Institute of Management practical management model defines critical development targets for managers and leaders

The New Zealand Institute of Management was established 60 years ago to help managers develop their skills and to provide easy access to the latest and most relevant international management research and experience. Today NZIM has more than 6000 individual and corporate members and delivers around 500 management development programmes a year. It is still dedicated to building individual and organisational management and leadership capability. NZIM's learning programmes and professional qualifications framework recognises members' level of management skill and experience, and its mentoring programme helps them tap into and utilise the experience of other successful leaders and managers. The Institute has now used its access to the world's best management research to distil and create a practical management model that defines the critical development targets for today's managers. By using the model, managers can match their current skill level and experience to their ongoing learning and development needs. And NZIM mentors can use the model to assess their protege's needs and so guide them more effectively. The model also helps NZIM link its learning programmes to specific management development areas and provide a management development framework.
