Presidents Message

• Dear researcher,
• GANOM was established due a desire to share
  knowledge and experiences with friends from
  around the world in the area of operations
  management at the 2005 EIASM doctoral seminar in
  research methodology for OM. As you well know a
  PhD is a very demanding time, by finding
  researchers in your area and friends we can
  support one another to achieve. In the future, we
  hope to meet at conferences, arrange seminars and
  possibly provide opportunities to work together
  on publications globally.
• This presentation sets out to discover and
  establish a network for researchers by providing
  web forums, discussion groups, personal webpage's
  and networking events to support one another's
  research. Within, this world there are possibly a
  number of people who actually could understand
  your research!, but how do we find these people?
  We hope GANOM will achieve this, and grow in size
  to encourage all researchers in our field to come
  together and contact one another and share
  experiences.
• On behalf of GANOMs establishing team we hope
  you will want to be a part, contribute and tell
  your fellow researchers. We hope to see you at
  the first GANOM forums and networking events.
  Together we can achieve greatly, we have an
  opportunity to build a network that will be there
  to help future researchers. And provide the
  opportunity to maintain professional friendships
  when we have achieved our doctorates.
• If you have any queries you wish to raise or want
  to know how you can contribute, then please
  contact me.
