Chris Radford, President of AE Wealth Management, the wealth management division of Advisors Excel, comes on the Namastir Podcast to discuss how the son of a furniture salesman became the President of one of the 10 fastest growing Registered Investment Advisory (RIA) firms in the country.

Chris focuses on "We" rather than, "I" when discussing the topic of success and when asked to point to how he builds effective times, Chris discusses the importance of listening to, and caring for, your employees in order to get "buy in".

Blair has Chris walk him through his childhood aspirations, how he found financial services, and when "the light came on" that he could lead an organization at its highest level.

What emerges throughout the conversation is that Chris does not fit the ego-centric model of leadership, but rather approaches it from the perspective of servant leadership.
