About the Hall of Honor

The Hall of Honor was established in 2008 to pay tribute to those Industry leaders whose careers reflect exceptional and distinguished service to their companies or the Association, or who have worked to elevate the Industry as a whole. Since its inception, 84 deserving individuals have been inducted into the Hall of Honor. Nominations for this distinguished group may be submitted by any IAM member, client or customer.

Nomination Guidelines

The process to select new members of the Hall of Honor is very rigorous and is determined by your fellow IAM Members and those individuals who are already members of the Hall of Honor. After the open call for nominations, the list of nominations is sent to our living Hall of Honor members to solicit input and additional information regarding each nominee on their contributions to the industry. The Selection Committee reviews the information provided by the living Hall of Honor members, the information provided by the nominator, and any historical information on file for each nominee. Following that review, each member of the Hall of Honor Selection Committee votes
independently and confidentially. Once the votes have been tabulated, the list is then sent to the Executive Committee for a final review.

The entire process is kept confidential.

Hall of Honor Sweep Class

The Hall of Honor Sweep Class was instituted in 2017 to recognize deserving industry members who may have been overlooked due to the facts that their peer group is no longer involved in the industry or Association, and subsequent generations have had little to no interaction with them.
