Start The Year Off With Some Inspiration Happy New Year! We hope that you are easing into January. We thought we would kick off things by sharing a positive story, something that is inspiring and shows determination and growth... Here it is. Every year, we have the privilege of recognizing an exceptional individual who embodies the heart and soul of Beck Bode's mission to transform lives. Through their remarkable dedication and genuine spirit of service, this person sets the gold standard for what it means to create meaningful impact. We created the “Mallach Award” to recognize precisely this kind of individual in our organization. Named after David Mallach – Ben’s mentor, and the author of Dancing with the Analysts (among many other books), the Mallach Award is presented annually to an individual who consistently exemplifies the Beck Bode purpose of doing good. This person lives our collective mission to have a positive impact on everyone they touch—from family, colleagues, and friends to clients and the community. They embody a genuine enthusiasm for sharing the Beck Bode philosophy, driven purely by the joy of spreading something meaningful with others.
