From Wirehouse to Independence: Developing Complete Wealth Managers with John Amore

This week, Jack Sharry talks with John Amore, President of Kestra Financial. John is committed to building out capabilities that empower advisors and support the financial independence of their clients. He focuses on creating a thriving community of complete wealth managers. Before becoming President, John led Kestra’s Wealth Management division, where he drew on his global leadership experience to drive growth, innovation, and advisor success.

John shares with Jack why he made the leap from wirehouse to the independent space, how Kestra is building out a holistic ecosystem for advisors, and what the firm is learning about one of the most critical issues facing the industry today—succession planning. John also discusses the recent industry study on succession planning and why it’s a necessary and often deeply personal issue for financial advisors.
