Mission
The Conference Committee will organize IOA volunteers and coordinate all necessary preparations to convene an annual event that promotes the organizational ombuds profession, provides relevant educational content, enriches networking experiences for attendees, and allows for the conducting of IOA Annual Meeting business. The IOA annual conference serves as the premier venue to promote ombuds awareness, increase individual knowledge, and enhance professional skills.
