About IARIMOS

A global community of scholars and practitioners committed to promoting Indigenous knowledge and leadership in the field of management.

Grounded in community

Indigenous perspectives on management and organisation offer different ways of knowing, practicing and supporting sustainability, development, inclusion, innovation and entrepreneurship.

It is essential to see how these different ways may be rooted in quite different worldviews—different conceptions of how elements of reality are distinguished and how they are related, how we come to know things, what it is that we already know, and what values range over these factors.

Our annual conference brings together scholars, practitioners, and community leaders to share their insights and experiences in Indigenous management, entrepreneurship, governance, and leadership.

Published in 2026, the Indigenous Management: Knowledges and Frameworks textbook emerged from community calls for a teaching resource and tools designed to showcase and amplify Indigenous knowledges. Meet our editors and collaborators below.

Our resource library presents Indigenous knowledges and frameworks from a global community of Indigenous researchers, educators and collaborators, enabling students and educators to extend the classroom experience with stories, videos, poetry, paintings and more from a diverse array of Indigenous nations and communities.  

Our mission

At the International Academy of Research in Indigenous Management and Organizational Studies (IARIMOS), we are dedicated to advancing management research that is grounded in Indigenous perspectives and knowledge.

Through our research and engagement activities, we seek to empower Indigenous self-determination, foster economic reconciliation, and enrich management discourse with Indigenous perspectives.
