Time to step up

This business needs your help to fill the shoes of retiring advisors. And with women comprising only 20% of the advisor population, how can we ensure part of the future is female?

Mentorship is one of the best ways to put young advisors onto the fast track to industry success, and to find you a successor. Yet it’s a daunting task for a busy advisor. In this series, we ask industry players what they’ve done to mentor advisors, strategies that worked, and their views on how we can increase the number of women in the industry.
