One of the three finalists will receive the 2013 401(k) Advisor Leadership Award during the 2013 NAPA/ASPPA 401(k) SUMMIT, March 4 in Las Vegas. They were chosen from a group of nine semi-finalists (in turn, chosen from more than 65 nominations received), including:

• Blake Thibault, Heffernan Financial Services
• Kathleen Kelly, Compass Financial Partners, LLC
• Troy Hammond, Pensionmark Retirement Group
• Phil Fiore, The FDG Group (UBS)

Now in its sixth year, the 401(k) Advisor Leadership Award continues to recognize leadership, innovation and contributions to the retirement plan industry with the sales, marketing and establishment of 401(k) plans. Past recipients of the award are known for going “above and beyond” to exemplify a key pursuit of NAPA and ASPPA: to directly impact the ability for Americans to build a successful retirement, especially through employer-based plans.
Keep an eye out for in-depth profiles of the three semi-finalists throughout this month.
