The Dynamics of Human Capital: Retention, Compensation, and Culture in the Modern Advisory Firm
Webinar
Moderator:
- Scott Leak, CFP®, CEPA®
Panelists:
- James Sammarco, Co-Founder and Managing Partner, The Third Group
- Jon Vorpagel, Co-Founder and Managing Partner, The Third Group
Join FP Transitions and The Third Group for a transformative conversation on how human capital drives sustainable growth and long-term enterprise value.
This session will explore why investing in people, not just portfolios, is one of the most strategic decisions an advisor can make. Learn how businesses are shifting from founder-centric models to equity-centered enterprises that reward talent, attract rising leaders, and support continuity across generations.
We'll discuss how to structure compensation and ownership pathways that align with growth goals, while transitioning founders from rainmakers to strategic leaders and mentors. You'll gain actionable insights into building centralized business structures that support internal succession, deepen employee engagement, and secure your clients' long-term stability.
Whether you're just beginning to explore continuity planning or actively developing a leadership bench, this session will help you align your human capital strategy with the future you want to build.
