Becoming an extraordinary financial advisor takes more than technical skill—it requires mastering teamwork.

This episode breaks down the five pillars of collaboration: trust, listening, influence, respect, and care. These qualities shape how you show up for colleagues and clients and determine the impact you make as a team member.

Strategies for remote communication, real-world examples of advisors going above and beyond, and the importance of consistent follow-through all reveal how trust is built through actions, not words. Being a great teammate isn’t about personality—it’s about behaviors that lift others up.

For anyone looking to grow into not just a skilled advisor but an invaluable collaborator, this conversation offers the roadmap.
