Embracing CEO Mindset
One of the greatest shifts financial advisors make in their practice is the point at which they move to running their firm. A priority at Sea Captain Coaching is helping clients understand how shifting from a monthly sales mindset to a quarterly CEO mindset allows for a more proactive execution of their business’s growth plan. It involves learning to let go and determining an organizational model that allows them to effectively run your organization.
