Afsaneh Akhtari-Smith

When you have a lot of success, it’s a great thing, but it’s also a little isolating. Now I’m in a community of people that are faced with the same things I’m faced with.

Doug McKeige

When you’re blessed and you’re growing your world, it’s very difficult to talk to people about how much you have and what plans you have. But TIGER 21 offers a platform where you can openly share with people who are in the same position.

Sanjay Singhania

Just like you go to your doctor and have a complete physical, you’re going to a financial and having a complete physical and you’re showing everything… It’s really important to me right now because succession is on my mind and succession is on every TIGER’s mind.
