Editor's Commentary
All of us here at Insightful Accountant would like to not only congratulate all of the winners this year of these K2 sponsored awards, but also commend our colleagues at K2 for the hard work they do in managing the awards process. We believe we have a good understanding of just how much work goes into an 'awards process' and we want to give K2 a 'virtual (socially distant) pat on the back' for their efforts.
Once again, "a big congrats to ALL of the Award Winners."
