The MPI Chair Award is a special recognition by the elected chair of MPI to an individual or group who has made an outstanding contribution to the meeting planning profession or MPI.

This year, Cleo Battle, 2023 chair of the MPI International Board of Directors, chose to recognize the past 5 chairs of the Chapter & Membership Advisory Council (CMAC) for their hard work and sustained efforts. Congratulations to Jason Carroll, Melanie Clifford, Liz Hogan, Michelle Johnson and Shannon Jones!

Your volunteer leadership led to a reorganization of chapters and new regional structure now serving to unite the MPI community and its volunteer leaders.
