Through the Leadership Recognition Program, progressive badges are earned by engaging in various IMA leadership development activities, including completing IMALA courses, presenting or moderating IMALA courses, serving as a chapter or council officer, or serving on an IMA advisory committee or the IMA Global Board of Directors.

 

For example, you can start by earning the pewter-level leader badge if you completed at least one of the following requirements: completed six IMALA courses, served as an IMALA faculty member for one term, served as a chapter officer for one year, or served as a council officer for one year.

 

In 2022, 1,118 IMA members earned a pewter badge, 705 earned bronze, 775 silver, 347 gold, and 328 platinum. Here are the platinum “superstars” from the last six months of 2022:
