“What. Just. Happened.” (How these financial advisors discovered brand stories)

When 20 of the nation’s top advisors walked into the room that morning, they probably thought we were about to debate the merits of logos and taglines. Nope. I told them to take out a pen, and I gave them a prompt: Write about a time when you realized that what you’d always thought was

One thing I'm NOT doing in 2020
