Talent Acquisition NAAAP is very proud of the quality of our membership base. Our organization is made up of highly

motivated and capable individuals. We all share one passion and that is to recognize leaders and to

promote leadership development. This pool of highly sought after talent would be readily available to

your HR department.

Many of NAAAP’s members are fluent in more than one language. In addition to being multi-lingual,

many NAAAP members possess excellent leadership and business skills, making them indispensable to

transnational organizations.

By partnering with NAAAP, you have access to this talent pool by:

Talent Development NAAAP at the national level and at local chapter &

venture locations are a source of quality

professional development and learning. Programs

include leadership, communications, public speaking,

CEO meet/greets, dress for success, women in

leadership, and personal branding. Many NAAAP

sponsoring companies and organizations avail their

Asian associates and leaders of their ERG (Employee

Resource Groups) to these NAAAP programs.

One example of a NAAAP program delivering value

was reported in the Forbes Magazine (Sept. 2011) –

seen on the right panel.

NAAAP partners with organizations such as

Leadership Education for Asian Pacifics (LEAP),

Spectrum Knowledge, and Project Management

Institute (PMI) to provide training and CEU’s.

Corporate & Business

Advisory Council NAAAP is the process of identifying individuals to

serve on a committee to advise NAAAP’s strategies

for engaging corporate, association and govern-

mental agencies. NAAAP desires to remain at the

cutting edge of providing high ROI for its partnerships.

This Council will be formed by first quarter-2012 and

will help advice NAAAP staff and board members in various aspects of NAAAP programs including the

2012 National Convention in New York City.
