English term or phrase: AM MBE
Hola. Estoy traduciendo las reseñas biográficas de los ejecutivos de una empresa. ¿Alguien puede aclararme a qué se refieren estas siglas que aparecen después del nombre de una persona? Obviamente no se trata de un "Member of the British Empire" :-)

Gracias de antemano colegas.

neutral  Jennifer Levey: Until asker tells us the person's nationality this should be offered as a guess (= confidence 1 or 2). The AM is only awarded to Australian citizens.
