Nominating someone for the 2017 Harry T. Eidson Award is easy. Simply click here and complete the online nomination form by July 31, 2017. The ASPPA Leadership Council (LC) will review all nominees and select the individual who best embodies the qualities that inspire this prestigious award.
The Eidson Award recognizes significant contributions to ASPPA and/or the private pension system. Other past recipients are a “Who’s Who?” among pension industry leaders.
In making the selection for the award, the ASPPA LC considers the following criteria regarding a candidate’s contribution:
- The contribution must be consistent with the ASPPA mission statement and should have a lasting, positive influence on ASPPA or the private pension system.
- The contribution may be current, one that spanned many years, or one made years ago from which ASPPA or the private pension system benefits today.
- The contribution should be a result of time devoted above and beyond reasonable expectations and not a result of time spent primarily for personal gain.
- The contribution may have been made and/or recognized on a national or regional level; however, publicity is not a criterion.
Do you know someone who you think exemplifies these characteristics? If so, nominate someone today!
Jim Nolan is ASPPA Vice President.
