Our Culture

Our Culture

Monterey Private Wealth believes in service above self.  This spirit of generosity remains a common thread in our organization.  Whether it is giving of our time, talent or treasure, we share a heart of service.  By committing ourselves to being lifelong learners, we find solutions to complex situations.

Our culture of honor creates an environment where differences are strengthened toward solutions. We empower our team members to develop professionally, while engaging as a stakeholder in the community.  We honor each relationship, knowing strong relationships make for stronger communities.  We are valued for our contribution, not by our position. 

Team work makes the dream work.”
