“When I reflect on the strategic partnership with Christy and her team the words that come to mind are - Intensely focused. Christy has a God given ability to see through the noise and focus on the core matters at hand. Her ability to dissect every single aspect of this business both from a mental and processes standpoint is world class and trajectory altering. You will get out of this program what you put in, don’t join unless you are truly ready for growth. When people ask, “What was the thing that elevated your practice and growth so quickly?”,
my response is, “Christy Charise.”

MEET YOUR COACH
Christy Charise
Founder & CEO of Strategic Advisor
Having started my career on the trading floor at Goldman Sachs in New York, I found myself missing the entrepreneurial elements of having grown up in a family business and returned to Cornell to study entrepreneurship and strategy.
After receiving my MBA from Cornell, I joined Bain & Co to help solve some of the biggest strategic businesses challenges of the day. From partnering with start-ups and private equity firms, to Fortune 100's, the work was challenging, fascinating and confirmed my deep passion for finding innovative solutions and approaches to solve perpetual and complex problems.
I remain immensely proud of that work, and draw on it, and the training received to complete it, regularly to this day.
But the professional experience I draw most deeply from in guiding advisors to FORUM was gained helping build Saugatuck Financial and serving as its COO for over a decade.
Saugatuck Financial was not only the first practice within NM to cross the $2m/$2m production mark, it is a practice that achieved that level of success at an unprecedented pace.
The firm is decades younger than equivalent peers. With FORUM-level production in year 1, it was also an inaugural 5-Star Pathfinder Practice, and is consistently recognized among the top Financial Planning Practices in the nation.
Over time, however, I realized that my deepest passion lies in supporting and guiding the nuance, thoughtfulness and excellence required to build top practices... the difference REALLY IS in the details. And, after consulting several other advisors (in my spare time), I found myself cheering louder for those whose success I was able to contribute to than for our own practice or myself.
So in late 2019, I returned to my strategy consulting roots and founded Strategic Advisor - a coaching and strategy consulting firm committed to the growth and results achievement of high potential financial advisors and their teams.
I've since had the privilege of contributing to the strategic growth of dozens and dozens of award winning practices through the creating and fine-tuning of smart, efficient, practical systems and practice strategies that are purposefully designed to be relevant, scalable, repeatable, impactful and easy to implement.
I'd be excited to welcome you into our family of advisors and can't wait to support and cheer your success as well!
