Nominate an Outstanding EO for an Association Excellence Award
Executive officers (EOs) at the helm of the Federation’s home builders associations (HBAs) are the backbone of the Federation, from handling day-to-day operations to helping their members’ businesses succeed.
Every year, NAHB recognizes the hard work and dedication of the EOs with the Individual Awards presented through the Association Excellence Awards (AEA). Awards are presented in the categories of Career Achievement, New Executive Officer, Small Office Honor and Executive Officer of the Year (view last year’s winners).
NAHB is accepting nominations for the AEA Individual Awards through March 31, 2025. If your EO deserves recognition, we encourage you to contact your HBA president or staff, who can facilitate the nomination process. The 2024 AEA winners will be announced in August at the 2025 Association Management Conference in Atlanta.
Visit the NAHB awards portal to submit a nomination.
