Jennifer Prosek has built a powerhouse communications firm by focusing on asset management. She asked herself, "Why does the financial industry not care about its brand, and why are they so on the back foot about everything?" I was particularly keen to talk to her about how firms struggle to differentiate, especially as formerly low-profile parts of the industry, such as private equity funds, now look to expanding across the wealth channel and begin to look more like consumer brands. We talk about how she built her firm from small beginnings; how family offices should think about their story; being prepared for a crisis in advance; educating financial advisors; how to go from high-level awareness down the funnel to actual ROI; how to navigate Milken and Davos; and the future of AI in communications.
Jennifer Prosek is the founder and managing partner of Prosek Partners, a leading integrated marketing and communications firm with offices in nine cities around the world. The firm was named the best financial communications and marketing firm by PRovoke Media in 2023. Jennifer was also listed personally on The Wall Street Journal’s “Most Influential Decision Markers” list in 2023 and 2024. She is the author of two books, “Army of Entrepreneurs” and “Raising Can-Do Kids.” Jennifer is on the board of the Mount Sinai Health System and the Museum of the City of New York and she received her MBA from Columbia University and a B.A. in English Literature from Miami University.
Jen is also known for her pithy sayings, and we managed to get a new one from her. Please enjoy my conversation with Jennifer Prosek.

Jason Schwarz is Deputy Chief Executive Officer and President at Wilshire, which currently manages over $100 billion in assets and advises on $1.3 trillion. Jason was raised in a legal family, but his path diverged from the expected, fueled by a desire to carve his own niche. He told me, “I think you see this with sons and daughters of successful parents," he mused. "One path is to follow in the same direction, the other is to go in one's own direction. And I chose that."
This decision led him westward, where he immersed himself in the ever-evolving realm of investments, including a side trip to Hanoi. We talk about what makes an effective consultant, the burgeoning OCIO business, what he learned from legendary founder Dennis Tito, and the transformation Wilshire underwent following its acquisition by Motive and CC Partners, where Schwarz played a pivotal role in streamlining previously siloed divisions.
Jason joined Wilshire in 2005 and has held a number of increasingly senior roles within the firm, including establishing Wilshire as a leading provider of investment solutions for financial intermediaries, advisors and their clients and ultimately overseeing all of the firm’s business segments. Jason holds a BA in Government from Hamilton College and an MBA from the Marshall School of Business.
Please enjoy my conversation with Jason Schwarz.

Carin-Isabel Knoop is the founder and executive director of the Harvard Business School Research and Case Writing Division. This conversation was spurred by two things, one that I found out on the Business Breakdowns podcast last year that Harvard Business School Publishing is larger than Forbes, and two that I’ve also always been curious about how case studies are actually written. Anyone who has done security or competitive analysis will appreciate the level of detail that goes into a case.
This is similar to the great conversation I had last year with Paul Edelman, who has developed psychological tests to find talent for leading hedge funds. I would encourage you to listen to that one if you haven’t, Paul is great at breaking down conceptual thinking.
Cases are used to teach decision making and business reasoning for analysts, business owners, consultants and investors, but what are the decisions that go into the cases themselves and why are they such a good tool for teaching this mode of thought? What I found was intriguing and in some ways pleasantly surprising, and Carin was great fun to talk to. Please enjoy our discussion.
Carin-Isabel Knoop is the Executive Director of the Harvard Business School Case Research and Writing Group which she began in 1995. Previously she was a consultant at McKinsey and Price Waterhouse Coopers. Carin has her bachelors summa cum laude in Government, Economics and International Relations from the University of Texas at Austin and an MBA from Harvard Business school with honors. She is also a very active writer on Medium and where she writes about creating better workplaces.

Today we are speaking to Ryan Eisenman, co-founder and CEO of Arch, a leading fintech startup that is a digital administrator for private investments. I thought it would be great to catch up with Ryan to get a look under the hood of a rapidly growing B2B SaaS company tackling one of asset management’s persistent back office issues such as K-1s and capital calls, as well as a look at how their focus on product and customer experience can help you stand out in the burgeoning fintech space. As someone who has personally struggled from the deluge of unstructured data in a family office, I am always interested in how technology can solve this ultimate of pain points in a family office or RIA, and Ryan and his team are on the cutting edge of applying new technology, including AI to this area. We hear his founder story and how he and his co-founders Jason Trigg and Joel Stein have approached pricing, market fit, handling data, and all the different types of customers and their individual challenges. Right after we recorded this interview, Arch closed a $20 million Series A led by Menlo Ventures, with Craft Ventures, Quiet Capital, Citi Ventures, and Focus Financial joining. The group has over 200 customers managing over $60 Billion.

Ryan is a Houston native, graduated from Vanderbilt University with a degree in Human and Organizational Development, and lives in New York City, where Arch is based.

Today we have Jon Hirtle, founder and executive chairman of Hirtle, Callaghan & Co, a $20 billion OCIO firm. I was especially interested to talk to Jon because he is a real process guy, and has been thinking deeply about managers and portfolios for over thirty years. John trained recruits at Paris Island, worked at Goldman, and left with no clients to become a pioneer in what came to become the OCIO business. We discuss prediction markets, what he learned from the Mellon family office, and his concept of looking for an “uninterrupted chain of logic.”
Jon is a regular commentator on national media and is best known for his role in pioneering the outsourced CIO (OCIO) model for families and institutions. Prior to founding Hirtle Callaghan, Jon worked at Goldman Sachs advising family groups and institutions on investment strategy and securities selection. Previously, he served as an officer in the United States Marine Corps. He earned his B.S. and M.B.A. degrees from the Pennsylvania State University.

AI for Portfolio Insight
Jan Szilagyi is the CEO and co-founder of Toggle AI, a generative AI startup that uses machine learning to turn institutional-grade data into insights for investors of all stripes. Szilagyi spent most of his career with Stanley Druckenmiller at Duquesne Capital. He was co-CIO of global macro at Lombard Odier and also managed portfolios at Fortress under Michael Novogratz. Jan has a Ph.D. in economics from Harvard, and BA and MA degrees in mathematics and economics from Yale.
I was very eager to talk to Jan about his cutting-edge work of actually applying artificial intelligence to help portfolio managers and analysts. When I first met Jan three years ago, he was already ahead of the curve in using advanced models to digest huge amounts of investment data and prices in a way that was useful and didn’t require data science training to use. We talk about Jan’s experience at Duquesne and Fortress, the founding of Toggle AI, how to think about how AI is being applied to the financial world, hiring AI talent, and how to speed run a Ph.D. Please enjoy my excellent conversation with Jan Szilagyi.

Stan was previously a longtime director at Bain and chairman of their Worldwide Executive Committee and a co-founder of Evolution Global Partners, a venture capital firm affiliated with Kleiner Perkins and TPG.
I was interested to talk to Stan about the very interesting DNA of Partners, and how they engage with their very talented clients, many of whom are private equity partners, endowment heads, and substantial family offices.
Stan has thought deeply about the Endowment Model and has written many excellent white papers for Partners, some of which we discuss. We cover the upcoming energy transition and why the route is not Net Zero, how he combined strategic thinking and analysis with the endowment model into the playbook they used to start Partners, how private equity partners manage their own personal money, and the transitions they go through in their own lives, and how Stan thinks about alternatives to alternatives. Please enjoy my excellent conversation with the engaging Stan Miranda.

Paul Edelman is a psychologist who has worked with some of the world’s most successful hedge fund managers. Today we take a deep dive into how psychological techniques can be used to look for investment managers, how Paul applied what he learned from great mentors to filter for the investment management skill set, the importance and uncovering of conceptual and probabilistic thinkers, and why you shouldn’t use Myers Briggs. We get a bit into some very interesting weeds including some history of psychology and analytical concepts, but Paul has a great way of tying it all together to more deeply understand how people think about markets and interact with each other in high-pressure situations.
Please enjoy my fascinating conversation with Paul Edelman.
