Award Winning Speaker

I just won the western Slopes online area (F3) in toastmasters yesterday and it caused me to pause and think about which awards mean something as a speaker…

I know that honors, titles, designations and accolades matter significantly in Educational settings to build credibility however I’m curious what alphabet soup after your name matter the most if you are building to become a world class speaker?

For example CSP( from the NSA), Accredited Speaker (Toastmasters), or Certified XYZ from XYZ business. It is all an outward badge to prove that you did a thing.

Sure I am an Eagle Scout, S award winner , and sterling scholar, Multiple time award winning teacher and entrepreneur however some awards hold no weight outside of very specific organizations & circles so I don’t mention them.
