| Media Release Adam Thornton elected IPENZ Fellow Adam Thornton, Dunning Thornton Consultants Ltd, was elected a Fellow of The Institution of Professional Engineers New Zealand (IPENZ) for his contribution to leadership in the profession of engineering; specifically recognising his leadership in the consulting engineering industry. Adam’s citation noted that he ‘has a strong reputation as
a structural engineer, with a particular talent for understanding the
strengthening of older buildings, but it is in his clear thinking approach
to industry-wide issues that he most makes his mark. He is a believer
in excellence and the setting of high standards in the profession having
been involved for several years on a Standards Committee. His leadership
ability has been recognised by his elevation to the presidency of ACENZ,
and he is an excellent communicator to the media and others on their behalf.
On top of this commitment, he agreed to serve on the 2003 IPENZ Structural
Engineering Taskforce, and contributed strongly to development of their
recommendations’. Adam was presented with his Fellowship at the IPENZ Awards Dinner held
in Christchurch at the Hotel Grand Chancellor, on Thursday, 25 March 2004. |
