2009 Winner
Timi Gleason

An early member of ASP and the San Diego Chapter, Timi has been deeply involved in the chapter's overall development, in particular in guiding the growth of its programs and their content. The chapter enjoys a good reputation for its programs and their format thanks in a large part to Timi's focus on vetting and delivering good and relevant speakers, guiding and supporting the mini-workshop format and supporting and coaching new board members. She has volunteered for tasks at Annual Conferences and attended many of them. Establishing a good programming process truly supports the strategic planning practitioner and helps recruit valuable members to ASP and the local chapter board.

2009 Winner
Steve Haines

This award is based upon the leadership Steve has provided this year to the ASP Board's project to establish a strategic planning certification process. He has willed this project forward in all its aspects, and without his leadership there is little doubt that this process would have made it as faras it has. The identification of a set of standards and a certification process have the potential to establish ASP as the premier association in this area and in turn establish this area of practice into a well established profession.

2009 Winner
Dr. Joyce Reynolds-Sinclair

To qualify for this award, Joyce led the Council of Chapter Representatives, aka Chapter Council, which facilitates chapter interaction with the ASP Board. Under Joyce's co-leadership this year, the Chapter Council accomplished more than ever, and was extremely well organized. Joyce structured every meeting and interchange so as to get maximum effectiveness. She represented the results to the ASP Board, and provided direct feedback from the Board to the Chapter Council members. Without Joyce's leadership, the Chapter Council would not have been as effective in cementing ASP together as a single, unified organization. Her persistent, professional dedication to excellence made the Chapter Council an effective vehicle for ASP success.

2008 Winner
Dr. Bill Bigler

Bill Bigler made major contributions to the Association as Co-Founder and President of the Dallas Area (now D/FW) Chapter. Dr. Bigler's leadership was instrumental in the creation of a dynamic, successful chapter in the Dallas- Ft Worth Metroplex, which serves as the ASP anchor organization in the southern part of the country. The chapters successful programs have set an outstanding example for other emerging chapters. Dr. Bigler served as Chair of the Goodman Award Selection Committee from 2006 to 2008 and his leadership was the major factor in establishing this award as the premier for outstanding organizational strategic planning.

In addition, Dr. Bigler introduced the idea of an ASP Research Institute and worked to develop this concept.

Although the growth and success of ASP has been the result of a team effort by many hard-working people, Ms. Water's leadership in membership development was a significant contribution worthy of this award.

2008 Winner
Jim Wilson

Jim Wilson served as Chairman or Co-Chair of the ASP Annual Conference from 2003 to 2007. Over these years, the conference evolved from a relatively small, local gathering to a major international event. Through Mr. Wilson's contributions, the Annual Conference is now a major forum for professional information exchange regarding strategic planning. The quality and consistency of the Annual Conference under Mr. Wilson's sustained leadership set the stage for all future conferences and created a standard of excellence for all to follow. Mr. Wilson further contributed to the overall success of ASP by serving on the Board from 2003-2005.
