Earlier in the year, Gary Neild was honoured to be asked by the talented Phoebe Stone to record a video for her ‘Connected Capital’ series.
In each episode, Phoebe, Chief Sustainability Officer at LGT Wealth Management, sits down with a special guest to explore innovative ways financial capital can be used to inspire a more sustainable tomorrow for future generations.
Blue Sky has always emphasised the importance of financial well-being for clients and their families, but also the wider community too. Financial education and understanding dreams and aspirations is where it all starts, as from here we can make informed choices and take calculated risks.
In this video, Phoebe talks to Gary, in part, about why financial education is a building block of a more sustainable tomorrow and how empowering teams within a financial company could be the key to successfully achieving both the firm’s goals and clients’ objectives too.
Many of our clients will have heard Phoebe speak at our seminars and events. Her passion for sustainability is unparalleled. In this second series of Connected Capital, Blue Sky are the only representative of the finance sector, which was a huge privilege, if not a tad nerve-wracking for Gary!
“Phoebe was particularly interested in my transition from being a teacher to becoming the CEO of a financial planning company. It seems a long time ago now that I changed careers, but it is a great example of how skills are transferable. It’s timely that this recording has just come out as it follows on nicely from the Dorset Chamber’s business festival, where, as festival partners, we supported the messaging about the importance of businesses being a force for good. We go above and beyond to improve the lives of our clients, our team and the wider community – we are truly passionate about a better future for all.”
