Steve Sanduski and CEO Coaching International Partner to Add Financial Industry-Specific Coaching

Steve Sanduski, veteran industry business leader, business coach, speaker, podcaster, and New York Times bestselling author, is partnering with Mark Moses and the very seasoned team of world-class coaches at CEO Coaching International to help high-performing advisors and fintech entrepreneurs reach the next level.

Steve has over 20 years of experience growing financial services companies by multiples, including one whose revenue grew 17-fold during his leadership.

From his early career at leading companies including Caterpillar and Hewlett-Packard to his later career with fast-growing financial startups, Steve has a broad range of experience to draw on as he coaches a select number of leading entrepreneurs and CEOs who want to accelerate their growth.

As the financial industry grapples with the fintech revolution, robo-advisors, increased regulation, a generational shift to millennials, and instability in the financial markets, coaching today is not about how to do more and do it faster.

Instead, advisors need a whole new way of thinking about and approaching the business. Best financial industry practices from the past are quickly becoming obsolete.

Going forward, financial advisors need fresh thinking, new business models, and a coach who can challenge them to reimagine what it will take to be a successful financial advisor over the next decade. That’s what Steve does.
