Service to NAPO Award 2013
This year I was honored at the National Conference of the National Association of Professional Organizers with the Service to NAPO Award. This special award is presented to an individual who has made an outstanding contribution to NAPO or the organizing industry not described under other award categories.
My service to NAPO began as soon as I joined our organization. I have been privileged to serve on the Education, Leadership Task Force, Social Media, Marketing and Conference Committees, in addition to being the Conference Committee Chair in 2008. Locally, I have been the Vice President and President of NAPO Houston. Being on these committees has given me the opportunity to collaborate with colleagues and promote our industry. I always choose to serve in a way that uses my strengths and in a way that builds a team. After 12 years of service, I have more to give too!
I am grateful to have the opportunity to work with my colleagues and make a difference in our industry. It is an honor to be recognized with this award.
Congratulations, Ellen! I’m lucky to have met you at conference before you became famous!
Ellen, when she was describing the recipient before your name was called, I thought to myself…”this sounds like Ellen.” Seconds later your name was called. This could not go to a more deserving person. I’m so glad I was with you when you received it. Congratulations!
You rock, Ellen!!!!!
Thanks Nancy! I am so glad we were together that day!
I am so glad we met too! It is what conference is all about!
