LEADER OF THE MONTH PROGRAM

MPI Houston Chapter launched a new initiative this year - The "Leader of the Month" Program.  It is designed to increase exposure and recognition for our Chapter Leaders (volunteers) for their commitment and dedication to their professional organization, MPI-HAC and to encourage continued engagement through participation on the board and committees.  The recipient of this award each month will be honored at our chapter luncheon and they will receive a certificate of recognition signed by our President, a free luncheon gift certificate, their name and photo on the website and added to the nomination list for "Leader of the Year", awarded at our Annual Awards Banquet in June.
