AUSTIN, TX, OCT 18, 2022 – Top financial security firm Ludacka Wealth Partners has recently announced a long-term strategic partnership with Talent War Group, a leadership development and executive search firm, to create a world-class leadership development ecosystem.
Recognized as one of the nation’s premier financial security firms, Ludacka Wealth Partners made the Forbes Top 100 Financial Security Professionals in both 2021 and 2022. Although the award-winning firm has grown exponentially over the last two years, its Founder and CEO, Paul Ludacka, doesn’t plan on letting the momentum slow down anytime soon.
After reading ‘The Talent War: How Special Operations and Great Organizations Win on Talent’, Talent War Group was the obvious choice to help create an internal sustainable leadership development program.
“Talent War Group is the best of the best,” says Ludacka. “They strive for perfection and settle for nothing short of excellence. Leading with integrity, strength, and purpose, their core values align perfectly with Ludacka Wealth Partners. Together, we know our success is all about people, and our legacy is only as strong as the relationships we build.”
Ludacka Wealth Partners has always put precedence on leadership, innovation in a highly regulated space, and values that have set them apart from their competition and driven their customer-centric vision. Ludacka adds, “The Talent War Group team is impacting our firm and developing our next generation of leaders. TWG is whom we rely on to win the war for talent!”
Talent War Group, founded by retired Navy SEAL and best-selling author Mike Sarraille, is rooted in the belief that people are an organization’s most strategic competitive advantage. Talent War Group helps organizations optimize the people side of their business through talent acquisition and talent management practices, leadership and culture development design, and succession planning.
“We’re excited to partner with Ludacka Wealth Partners,” says Sarraille. “Paul’s leadership has fostered incredible growth, and we look forward to helping further operationalize his vision and bolster the firm’s impact within the financial securities sector. Our focus is to help Paul create a leadership development program that other firms dream of replicating,” he adds.
The creation of this leadership development program will be headed up by Josh Johnson, and Joe McNamara. The program will include a year-long series of in-house training, workshops, and experiential training. “Partnering with a visionary leader like Paul Ludacka allows us an exciting opportunity to implement innovative programs that will positively impact the firm’s leadership. This will result in a winning culture built on trust, defined by a code, and led by high performers at all levels of the team,” says Joe McNamara, Talent War Group’s Chief Revenue Officer.
Talent War Group will also work with Ludacka Wealth Partners to create an established talent acquisition and talent management system to attract, hire, and retain top talent. “As Paul evaluates the future of his organization, selecting the right individuals to join the team and build upon their success will be one of Talent War Group’s priorities throughout the partnership,” says Karli Waldon, Talent War Group’s President, and Head of Executive Search.
This long-term strategic partnership between Ludacka Wealth Partners and Talent War Group will begin this October 2022 and run into early 2023. Its outcome will be a sustainable, repeatable process that the firm can implement internally – cementing a legacy of leaders creating leaders.
