Is your firm doing too much and delivering too little?

In this first episode, Andrew Evans kicks off The Outstanding Shift by sharing his refreshingly honest views on the financial services industry, his bold approach to building Rossby Financial, and the power of focusing on “less but better.” He also reflects on cultural icons and what it truly takes to become “outstanding.”

  • The creation of ROffice: an on-demand support platform for advisors needing help only when they need it
  • His belief in “less but better,” drawing inspiration from essentialism to eliminate unnecessary tools, costs, and systems
  • Using business growth as a platform to develop the next generation, especially those overlooked in big firms
  • Why embracing AI is no longer optional for financial professionals aiming to stay relevant
  • And more!
