Chris Pownall is the first one to the battlefield every single day. Why? Well, he is on a mission that can’t wait -- make Northwestern Mutual’s South Florida Group a top financial planning firm in the nation. As one of Northwestern Mutual’s Managing Directors, Chris is constantly working to uphold and even exceed his national reputation for excellence. He has signed over 50 new financial advisors and representatives and has coached each of them closely as they have launched their careers -- many of which have gone on to have impressive and fulfilling legacies in the financial industry. His coaching style is straightforward -- put first things first, second things never. In other words, focus on the one thing you need to do every single day to kill it in the workplace, and hammer away at that one thing until you become a master at your craft. Chris’s drive and ornate ability to coach big time talent has landed him countless awards.
