2024 PLANADVISER Emerging Leaders

The PLANADVISER Emerging Leaders recognition is given to members of the retirement plan advisory industry whose managers and peers believe are poised to advance the profession in the future.

To be considered, potential recipients must be nominated and have worked in the retirement plan advisory industry for at least three years, but no more than 10. The award is open to individuals across all areas of the business—advising, operations, client relations, data, participant education, etc.

Nominations for Emerging Leaders open in May. Anyone working with a person who has Emerging Leader qualities may nominate that person, and self-nomination is allowed. Each nominee must get support from their lead adviser to be considered. Nominees are asked to opt in to the awards program and complete a Q&A. Judges review the nominations and Q&As and select recipients. The recipients are announced in August. Nominees who do not make the list can apply again in subsequent years as long as they continue to meet the requirements.

The 2024 PLANADVISER Emerging Leaders get extra recognition at the PLANADVISER 360 event in November. Additionally, a half-day of networking and educational opportunities is dedicated to this up-and-coming group along with others early in their retirement plan advisory industry careers.
