Chad Manning - Senior Vice President, Branch Manager: Wells Fargo Advisors

Y'all Street? Cool cover and article in the Dallas Business Journal. Interesting to find out that the DFW Metroplex has become the second largest financial hub in the country, trailing only NY. Since 2019, DFW has added over 59,000 finance jobs. Call it the Walls Street of the South, or whatever you like, but DFW is having a moment!

Two Cowboys, one Texan! Got to spend the evening at the FWSS and Rodeo with two other great managers in North Texas, John Lord manager of Dallas Crescent and David Taylor manager of Fort Worth. They may not be from here, but they have certainly set roots and bought in. Great leaders and a lot of fun to spend time with.

You can always come home! After several years away supporting our Divisional Leadership, our own Jen Meyer has rejoined our local branch at The Star in Frisco. I am pumped to have Jen work as part of my local leadership team and help support our Financial Advisors and staff!

Picture Day at The Star! With our move (mostly) behind us, we thought we could use a little update to our profiles. Thanks, Madi and Micah for spending so much time with our staff and bringing out the best in everyone and showcasing our new space.

Now, be our guests and come check it out for yourselves. We look forward to seeing you!

And....we are official. Still smoothing down some rough edges, but good to finally all be together in our new "house". There goes the neighborhood (in the best way possible)!

New office in The Star sure to reinvigorate local Wells Fargo Advisors and clients starlocalmedia.com

Great way to kick off Veteran's Day Weekend! Good job WF!

We had so much fun hosting our clients and advisors at the Dallas Arboretum Thursday night. WFA is proud to be annual sponsors of the Dallas Arboretum and the Cool Thursdays Concert Series. The weather was incredible and Hard Nights Day, The Beatles Tribute Band played a great set. Always one of the best nights of the year!

This is an important time for High Net Worth families to understand how they manage cash. Wells Fargo has solutions for those looking at options for cash and cash alternatives while keeping your long-term goals in focus.

What a fantastic week in Atlanta with WFA WIM Leadership and my peers in the field. I made so many new and meaningful connections and saw the future that we are bringing as a firm to our clients. Spoiler Alert... at Wells Fargo Wealth Management, the future starts now!

It was also a blast and such an honor to join Julie Caperton, Mike Carroll, Jessica Kelly and John Draper for our Banking Lending and Trust panel. Hope everyone enjoyed the message as much as I enjoyed helping to deliver it.

Finally, I was grateful to receive a little recognition from Barry Sommers, Sol Gindi and Heather Hunt-Ruddy. I appreciate the support you all give in helping our field leaders in support of our Advisors in service of their clients.

What's more exciting than a new home? A new home in the fasting growing community in the United States with the Dallas Cowboys as your neighbor!

We are excited to announce that our Plano and Frisco Wells Fargo Advisors offices will be consolidating in to their new home this summer at the The Star in Frisco!

2022 Year in Review. Wow! What a year 2022 has been! So much has happened in 12 short months.

We celebrated new beginnings, and mourned loss. We achieved things so much greater than our goals and fell short of achieving other pursuits. Hope we all learned equal lessons from both of those experiences.

Whether spending time engaged with my office, getting out and involved with our partners in the community or strategizing with the best FAs in Dallas (both those that I already work with and those that I don't), 2022 has given me so much to be thankful for and to learn from.

I'm ready to begin applying those lessons. But I'll wait until next year.

Hope you all have a safe and Happy New Year!

We hope your holidays will be filled with joy and laughter through the New Year. Merry Christmas!

This year our WFA support staff at the Crescent chose to support Toys for Tots for our holiday campaign. It was their idea to bring in donated toys and their effort that delivered those toys. I'm certain their effort will help make the holiday's a bit brighter for some great kids! Thanks to everyone that participated.

What an incredible evening with an incredible organization at the 2022 Crystal Charity Ball. The Crystal Charity Ball has donated over $149 million since beginning in 1953. Thanks so much to Wells Fargo for participating in raising money for so many great causes and for asking me to be part of an amazing evening!

And sometimes....We celebrate! It's important to recognize the big wins and all the hardwork our co-workers and employees put in to deliver for their clients...and to bring in new ones.

Sending good wishes to you this Thanksgiving! Good food that fills your table, good health as you work hard, and good times with family and friends. Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks to all of our team members that participated in our Crescent Thanksgiving Potluck. Hated that I had to miss it, but I am thankful for all of you!

Congratulations to all involved. This type of move is supported by so many people. I'm certain the Advisors and team worked unimaginably hard to do their due diligence and select the best home for their clients and their practice. Kudos to the incredible work done by the Branch, Market, Division and Senior WIM leadership. The bar has been raised.

I would ask the best of the financial advisor community in Dallas, are you willing to accept the challenge?
