I always enjoy watching great professionals at work in well managed firms. Seth Bernstein and Onur Erzan have brought vision and discipline to the team at AB in one of the toughest organizational management challenges: succession planning and execution. It takes long-term viewpoints, tactical discipline, and a “client / organization first” mentality to pull it off. These skills and successes are in far too short supply in asset & wealth management, and professional services in general. When done well, it is like sprinkling gold dust on the culture of your firm! Great reporting by Sam Heller and the team at FundFire on the industry’s good news items, not just the most trendy and popular.
