Beat the Odds - Driving Change and Development


A Message from the President

The greatest ongoing challenge that faces Club Management Development Australia and the Board of Management Studies is to identify the skills that Club Managers will require in the future, and the development of the training to enhance those skills.
The current environment in which we operate demands that professional club managers not only get results, but also lead their businesses and people into the future. This Conference is designed to equip you with some of the tools you’ll need to achieve those goals.

On behalf of the Federal Executive and the Federal Councillors of the Club Managers’ Association Australia, it gives me great pleasure to present the Conference Overview of the Mid Year Conference 2007.

I take this opportunity to thank our trade supplier sponsors, the Board of Management Studies and CMDA staff for their ongoing commitment to the professional development of members of the CMAA.  The Executive look forward to joining you at the Mid Year Conference.

Bill Clegg ACCM

CMAA Federal President
