R.B. Colborne Award of Excellence
The R.B. Colborne Award of Excellence recognizes and celebrates employees who have made a significant contribution through a commitment to our Core Values — the same Core Values first instilled by PWT founder Robert Colborne.
Nominees are selected by their peers and then evaluated by a committee that chooses the top nominees in each business line for induction into the PWT President’s Club of Excellence. From these nominees, a single recipient is chosen by the Board of Directors to receive the R.B. Colborne Award of Excellence.
