EDDIE BROWN: You know, Shannon, what energizes you every day to come into work and have the role and responsibility that you have?
SHANNON KENNEDY: Well, you know, what energizes me is two things, clients and employees. So, you know, we're an employee-led, advice-led firm. So starting with employees, I believe happy employees mean happy clients, mean more advocacy for growth, for the future of our firm. But I also love learning about our clients, most of them are business owners, and how they created generational wealth. And then how to go from owning a business to owning financial assets, and figuring out what to do with the legacy, what to do with their children, how to be a good philanthropist. I think, for me, the best compliment I can get from a client is 'I feel like I'm your only one, but I know you have plenty.' Which is how we feel with Schwab oftentimes because you have such dedicated servicers and people that we get to work with. So you're part of our family, as well.
