Strategic Alliances

The foundation of success and growth for the San Diego Chapter has been it’s many volunteers. Over the years, it is the members of SDMPI that have created the valuable educational opportunities, provided fertile networking arenas, introduced new and interesting venues for events, freely given advice and suggestions to one another, served as a source of support and encouragement for MPI members experiencing employment challenges, and so much more.

The leadership Task Force was formed to help develop and encourage the future leaders of our chapter, and to recognize the hard work and many hours our volunteers contribute to make our chapter a better one for all of our members.

We want to continue the Star of the Month Award. This award will be given to members who are making a significant contribution to our chapter. The award is based in part on the ability of the recipient to motivate others, stimulate volunteer activities, give a sense of direction and acts as a catalyst to cause exceptional results that benefit our chapter.

The guidelines for the Star of the Month are:

  • Nominees must have been involved in Chapter activities for a minimum of six months
  • Awards will be presented at the SDMPI monthly chapter meetings
  • If no one has been extraordinary, no award will be given for that month
  • Nominations can be made by any committee or board member
  • Current SDMPI board members are not eligible
  • All Stars are automatically eligible for Planner or Supplier of the Year

Take a look around your committee and carefully consider nominating someone who has made a difference (a) in the way your committee works: (b) in the benefits provided to SDMPI members: or (c) in the level of professionalism in the meeting industry.

Don’t sit around wishing someone would nominate your co-volunteer. Take the lead and nominate them today! Just dowload the nomination form below, fill out the information requested, and email or fax back it back to our Chapter Manager.
