New Model Adviser of the Year Award 2008 (East of England)
The January 2008 New Model Adviser (NMA) Conference and Awards was a busy time for Atkinson Bolton Consulting and for Simon Gibson in particular. Having been asked to appear in the opening video for the Conference, Simon also acted as a moderator and spoke with three other Advisers in an open panel session on business practice in the profession – the 300 strong audience seemed to find plenty of interest as the questions came thick and fast.
However, the highlight, after two previous nominations in 2006 and 2007, with no success, was the receipt, from Atlantic single-handed rower Debra Searle, of the Award for New Model Adviser of the Year for 2008 in the East of England.
