Connie Tipton, IDFA president and CEO, garnered another association accolade this month when she was named to the 2011 list of Top CEOs of Associations by CEO Update, the source for association news.

She joins 11 other executives "whose leadership attributes set the standard for the profession," said CEO Update in its September issue. "What all have in common is the respect and recognition they have earned as effective leaders and the impact they have made on those who regularly cross their professional paths."

Congratulations, Connie!
