Dear Christina Öberg, dear NFF current and former leaders, dear colleagues,

I hope this message finds you well.

It has come to my attention that the Nordic Academy of Management (NFF) is celebrating its 75th anniversary—what a remarkable milestone! On behalf of the International Federation of Scholarly Associations of Management (IFSAM) and its Board of Directors (BoD) and General Assembly (GA), I extend our heartfelt congratulations.
The growth and impact of NFF over these 75 years are truly impressive, and your continued dedication to advancing management scholarship in the Nordic region and beyond is inspiring. The way NFF has navigated challenges while fostering academic excellence and collaboration sets a strong example for the global community.

We have always valued NFF’s past contributions as a member of IFSAM and deeply appreciate the vibrant exchange of ideas between our organizations. As you celebrate this significant anniversary, we would be delighted to explore ways to strengthen our ties further—perhaps even discussing NFF’s renewed participation in IFSAM’s global network.

Warm congratulations once again on this special occasion. While celebrations may be constrained by current circumstances, we hope to reconnect in person soon. In the meantime, we wish NFF continued success in its mission, international engagement, and future endeavors.

We would be thrilled to collaborate more closely, whether through joint initiatives or even co-hosting an IFSAM World Congress in the years to come. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you’d like to discuss possibilities.

With best regards,
Professor Nic Beech
IFSAM President
