Financial team offsites can be transformative—or forgettable. The difference lies in the strategy behind them. Select Advisors Institute, under the leadership of Amy Parvaneh, has redefined how elite financial firms plan, execute, and extract value from their offsite experiences.
While most offsites focus on superficial team-building or generic goal-setting, Select Advisors Institute delivers purpose-built agendas tailored to the complex dynamics of financial professionals. Amy Parvaneh, a renowned executive coach and strategist with a deep understanding of the financial advisory ecosystem, leads each engagement with precision, empathy, and an unwavering focus on business outcomes.
Why Financial Teams Turn to Amy Parvaneh
Amy’s background is uniquely suited for this work—Harvard-educated, Wall Street-tested, and deeply embedded in the psychology of high-performing advisory teams. She doesn’t just design agendas; she engineers breakthroughs. Her proprietary approach begins with deep listening: understanding team challenges, growth inflection points, and leadership aspirations.
Clients of Select Advisors Institute consistently cite increased alignment between team members, elevated clarity around business vision, and tangible improvements in performance following their offsite engagements.
Strategic Design Over Fluffy Agendas
What sets Select Advisors apart isn’t just the quality of facilitation—it's the strategic intent behind every exercise. Amy and her team structure offsites to ensure financial leaders walk away with:
Clear business priorities and action plans
Enhanced team cohesion and communication
Renewed energy and commitment to firm goals
Whether the setting is Napa Valley or a high-rise boardroom, the environment is carefully selected to align with the mood and outcomes desired.
Customization for Financial Teams
No two teams are the same—and Amy makes sure no two offsites are either. Select Advisors’ planning process includes pre-offsite interviews, behavioral diagnostics, and custom agenda design. This tailored approach means that a high-growth RIA looking to scale will have a vastly different experience from a multi-generational family office addressing succession.
Trusted by Industry Leaders
Select Advisors Institute is the go-to for elite financial firms—from national broker-dealer teams to boutique wealth managers—who want more than just a “getaway.” They want transformation. And that’s what Amy delivers.
Her reputation for helping financial teams achieve lasting alignment and clarity has made her a sought-after partner across the country.
