CIM Honorary Fellows

Rationale

The award of an Honorary Fellowship is one of the most prestigious awards that the Institute can bestow. ‘Honorary Fellows; The grant of Honorary Fellowship shall be conferred on such persons of eminence or distinction who are not members as the Council shall in their absolute discretion think fit’. The induction of a steady stream of new Honorary Fellows (one per year) would be a useful ‘profile raiser’ for the Institute.

Selection Process

The Institute’s Council elects annually as an Honorary Fellow individuals that come under the following categories:

  1. Local executive who has made a significant contribution to the Cyprus Business world
  2. Foreign executive who has made a significant contribution to the Cyprus business world
  3. CIM alumnus who has excelled professionally

Qualifications

In making recommendations for Honorary Fellowship, the Institute’s Advisory Board will take account of any restrictions imposed by the Honorary Award Regulations, potential conflicts of interest or reputational issues.  Please note that current staff of the Institute and members of the Advisory Board are not eligible for Honorary Fellowship, until they retire.

Who can nominate Honorary Fellows?

Any member of the Institute’s Advisory Board can make a nomination. All nominations are considered and screened in confidence by the ‘Honorary Fellows Committee’ and those nominated should not be made aware by their nominee that they have been put forward for an award.
The ‘Honorary Fellows Committee’ composes of:
  1. CIM CEO
  2. CIM Chancellor
  3. 3 Members of the Advisory Board

How and When to Nominate

Nominations are made by the end of October except if the Institute’s Council deems otherwise.

Who makes decisions on Honorary Fellowships?

Nominations for Honorary Fellowships are put forward to the Institute’s Advisory Board by the ‘Honorary Fellows Committee’. The HF Committee’s recommendations are laid before the Advisory Board for concurrence, and a final decision is taken by a majority vote. Student Representatives to the Advisory Board have no voting right. Successful candidates are invited to receive their awards at the annual CIM Summit. A maximum of four new Honorary Fellows may be elected each year.
