The Certified Lease & Finance Professional (CLFP) Foundation presented the 2018 Cindy Spurdle Award of Excellence to Deb Reuben, CLFP at the ELFA Annual Conference in Phoenix, AZ. The award was created to acknowledge the CLFP who has contributed the most to the industry and best represents the CLFP ideals for the year.
Ms. Reuben is the President of Reuben Creative, a strategic technology and process consultancy firm. Reid Raykovich, CLFP Executive Director states, “Deb took on the huge task of rewriting The Certified Lease & Finance Professionals’ Handbook and did it within the timeframe, budget and produced a phenomenal piece of work. The Board of Directors and I couldn’t be more pleased with her tenacity and unique way of incorporating the knowledge of over forty Subject Matter Experts and translating it into one fluid Handbook.”
Upon receipt of the award, Ms. Reuben added, “It is an honor to receive this recognition. This project was an adventure. A handbook such as this is not the work of a lone author, but a collaborative labor of love influenced by many. I am grateful to all of the talented and dedicated authors and contributors to past CLFP Handbook editions, your work made it possible for me to earn my CLFP designation and formed the solid foundation for creating this new edition. It was a privilege to work with diverse and brilliant team of subject matter experts and reviewers who generously shared their wisdom, depth of experience, and expertise to make this possible. Thank you to the CLFP Foundation for the project opportunity and to Reid Raykovich, whose vision, leadership, and red pen were essential to the completion of this project.”
