FINANCIAL WOMEN INTERNATIONAL HONORS ‘PARTNER IN SUCCESS’

Ann Kvaal Recognized for Her Role as Association Management Services Provider

 

Roseville, Minn. (10/18/07) – Ann Kvaal, of AK Communications in Roseville, was honored recently with the Financial Women International (FWI) Partner in Success Award for her role as the professional association’s management services provider.

 

Past FWI President Nancy Kinder, senior vice president of FC Holdings Inc., Houston, presented the award to Kvaal at the 85th Annual FWI Conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Each year, the Partner in Success Award recognizes a company or individual who has shown an ongoing commitment to help women succeed in the financial services industry.

 

In her four years with FWI and its Foundation, Kvaal has brought continuity and a professional image to the association and its members, Kinder said. During this time, Kvaal has helped FWI make the transition from its former employee-based structure to the current volunteer-led system.

 

“Ann’s insight and experience has been a valuable asset to FWI,” Kinder said in presenting the award. “She has worked as a pivotal resource on many projects, always maintaining the best interests of the association’s mission and vision.  FWI members are fortunate to have Ann’s professional support and genuine commitment as an important part of our continued success.”

 

Kvaal worked as a newspaper reporter, editor and public relations professional before launching AK Communications in 1998. She provides association management services to four other non-profit associations in addition to FWI and public relations services to several education-based and small business clients.  She is a member of both the Minnesota School Public Relations Association and the Midwest Society of Association Executives.
