Leadership Awards
CSAE has developed and maintained stringent criteria to recognize excellence in the association sector through its leadership awards. Due to the prestigious nature of the awards they are not always bestowed each year.
Pinnacle Award
Given in recognition of exemplary leadership, this honour reflects outstanding achievements in both the professional and personal lives of not-for-profit executives. Recipients of this award are selected for outstanding leadership within their own association, their commitment to voluntary organization and their contribution to CSAE. The exemplary leaders have achieved prominence due to the credit they bring to association management and the not-for-profit community.

The Honoured Life Member Award
This award recognizes a member who has demonstrated a sustained commitment to the Canadian Society of Association Executives for a period of at least ten years. The CSAE Board of Directors grants this award in recognition of outstanding contributions to the Society.

The recipient of this award will be selected for a demonstrated outstanding contribution to the Canadian Society of Association Executives on a national basis for a minimum of 10 years, and/or for their contribution to a local chapter for 10 years based on a demonstrated and effective involvement at that level. The 10 years of contribution can be a combination of service at both levels.
