DICK NOBLE DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARD
The first Dick Noble Distinguished Service Award was presented to Dick Noble in September 1992 for his visionary leadership and outstanding contributions while conceiving, planning and executing the formation of the Association Meeting Professionals. Mr. Noble’s selfless devotion and high standards of excellence directly resulted in the founding of an organization that now includes more than 500 industry professionals. Recipients of this award set themselves apart by consistently contributing their time and energy to AMPs. The most prestigious award AMPs can bestow, it is not always given out each year.
