Nomination Criteria
1) Theme: the 2022 Convention theme is "Limitless Leadership," thus we are looking for contributors who have truly lived this theme of breaking free of societal- or self-imposed restrictions to take risks and assert themselves as change agents, innovators, and game changers.
2) Nominee background and credibility: our speakers may be of any race, ethnicity, and organization, but we will give preference to speakers who can speak authentically to the Asian North American or Pacific Islander experience or who represent one of our sponsors and partners. Nominees should possess deep knowledge of and passion for their subject matter.
3) Nominee presentation: nominees must be available to speak for about 1 hour. They should prepare an introduction, a presentation with optional interactive exercises, and for a Q&A. Preference will be given to nominees that offer interactive exercises.
4) Nominee presence: nominees should be engaging and inspiring speakers.
5) Location: The Convention will be in Washington, D.C. in person, so your nominee needs to be able to travel if they are not local to the area.
