"Die Deutsche Arbeitsfront / Gauwaltung Franken" refers to the Leadership/Administration authority of the German Labor Front's Gau-level organization for Franconia.

The document translates as:

"Die Deutsche Arbeitsfront
Gauwaltung Franken

Miss Elsa Schmidt

In grateful recognition
for services rendered in the
Vocational Training Organization

Nuremberg
Christmas 1941

[signed: Bayer]

Gauberufswalter"

The man in question was a senior DAF official and NSDAP member by the name of Ludwig Bayer. I don't have any more data on him, however.
