21. 21 What is PAOE exactly? The Presidential Award of Excellence (PAOE) has been an effective and valuable program in the growth and development of chapters and the Society. As a management tool, it provides an excellent yardstick to guide chapter management in the provision of services to the membership. The PAOE has welded together the efforts of ASHRAE through the strength of chapter operations. The PAOE sets goals for the Society in the key areas of membership, meeting attendance, education, research promotion and energy management (technical support to public agencies). Meeting these objectives is essential if ASHRAE is to fulfill its commitment to serve society and its members. Presidential Award of Excellence
