We give people and businesses the education, knowledge, and skills to make better decisions with the aim of enhancing business outcomes and the working environment for people everywhere.

Summary

The Center for Evidence-Based Management (CEBMa) is an independent, non-profit organization founded by an international group of management scholars and practitioners with the mission of helping people in organizations make better decisions with the use of evidence-based practice & management. Our vision is of a society where evidence-based practice is a defining feature of what it means to be a professional in business and non-profit organizations. We know that better decisions don't only make businesses more profitable, but they also enhance the work and lives of everyone impacted by them. We are looking for motivated and enthusiastic volunteers to join our Social Media Coordinating team. We recognize that educational content can seem dry, but our strategy is to use entertaining content to broaden awareness, enhance sharing of content where possible, and bolster retention of information through humour and relatabliity of content. Trendy and humorous memes that communicate our content are our current strategy and we're looking for someone to join our team to help us execute it day-to-day.
