Professional Speakers Associations - IFFPS

International Federation For Professional Speakers - IFFPS

As professional speakers we understand we can do more collectively then separately. Each member association opens their door wide to other members from around the world in an effort to foster continuing education, expertise, eloquence, enterprise and ethics in the industry.

The Federation officially launched in January 1998 after approval from the Boards of Directors of the first four Federation member countries – The Unites States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

I was recently in Malaysia with Joseph C. Sherren, CSP, HoF from Canada who is our current IFFPS President. He is doing a great job for our Federation as did Robyn Pearce, CSP who served the Federation as President last year. Our incoming Federation President-Elect is none other then the legendary W. Mitchell, CSP, CPAE from the USA and Australia.

Here is the list of all of the Federation’s Past Presidents:

Warren Evans, CSP, HoF- 1997-1998 Founding Federation President

David Price, CSP - 1998-1999 Federation President
