As the founder and partner of Johnson Financial Group, he has centered the firm’s focus on having deeper, more meaningful conversations with clients—discussions that other advisers often overlook. They want to understand the “why” before addressing the “how.” As a holistic financial planner, he and his team engage in broader discussions with clients to uncover their underlying motivations and objectives before devising strategies to achieve those goals. They consider not only financial capital but also human, social, and intellectual capital and seek to understand what clients want to be remembered for and what they aim to achieve. Once these desires are clear, the team works behind the scenes to develop tailored strategies that align with clients’ expectations and help them reach their goals.
