“It’s important to recognize individuals who have contributed their time and effort in leadership roles for the IARFC. I can’t think of a better person to honor with the Founder’s Award than our Trustee Chair, Barry Dayley. In the past he has been on the MRFC Board, supported the IARFC National Financial Plan Competition and is now the Trustee Chair. As a creative thinker and goal setter, he brings to the Association a forward thinking dynamic that will change the way the IARFC is perceived in the financial services industry. Being on the Board, I look forward to supporting his future vision.”
