Most CIMA decisions are made at Plenary meetings but much work goes on throughout the rest of the year. Sub-committees and working groups are appointed by the Plenary to do specific work and a *[Bureau|bureau:CIMA Bureau]* consisting of a President, two vice Presidents and a secretary/treasurer is elected by the Plenary to represent CIMA outside of the Plenary.
