Master of Influence Award
During his presidency in 1992-1993, Al Walker, CSP, CPAE and NSA's Board of Directors saw the need to establish a form of recognition for anyone who had a positive global impact through their speaking, whether or not they were a member of NSA. Therefore; this award is presented to speakers who have significantly influenced generations of speakers and whose distinguished careers have brought honor and recognition to the speaking profession.
