The firms that will lead the next decade are those that combine human expertise with better systems, stronger leadership, and disciplined execution. In this conversation, Spenser Segal shares what he's learned from more than 30 years helping financial services firms modernize the way they operate. We discuss how leaders should think about AI strategy, earning client trust, improving operational leverage, building teams, and creating businesses that continue to grow as technology evolves. Whether you lead a consulting firm, wealth management practice, accounting firm, agency, or another professional services business, this episode offers practical lessons for building a stronger, more resilient firm.
