The Ken Graves Memorial Award was established to recognize exemplary work and service not only in the profession of association management but also in one’s community. The award is named after Ken Graves, who was not only a founding member of the Arkansas Society of Association Executives, but also was the first Arkansan to receive the Certified Association Executive distinction from the American Society of Association Executives. Ken’s leadership extended beyond his association work into the community in which he lived. A native of Malvern and a graduate of Little Rock University, Ken Graves worked with the City of Little Rock’s Urban Renewal program and the Arkansas Real Estate Commission before being named ‘executive secretary’ for the Arkansas Realtors Association in 1975. The prestigious Ken Graves Award recognizes exemplary work and service by an executive - not only to the profession of association management, but to their community and the state of Arkansas. It is not necessarily a lifetime achievement award and not always presented every year. The award is the highest individual award of ASAE and is presented at the Annual Banquet during the convention.
