The Society for the Advancement of Management, commonly known as SAM, is the oldest among professional management societies. On November 11, 1910 colleagues of Frederick W. Taylor met at the New York Athletic Club to discuss and promote the principles of 'scientific management'.

Following two years of discussion groups and informal meetings the group came together and formed the Taylor Society on November 7, 1912.

In 1936 the Taylor Society merged with the Society of Industrial Engineers and new organization undertook the new name. To date the Society is the world's oldest professional management society.
