ABOUT DICK

I've made significant contributions in corporations in various industries and prestigious hedge funds over the last 20 years. I've gained a clear and objective picture of what makes my work - and me - truly distinctive. And this section of my site offers the results of the process that I used to discover what makes me successful, no matter the role. Together, these intangibles offer a well-defined portrait of my unique promise of value and my patterns of success.

What do I stand for?

• Vision: I envision a holistic financial system, one in which the investment management process, both in investment funds and corporate transactions, operates with integrity and investor-focus, achieving a proper balance of risk and return for all stakeholders.
• Purpose: My contributions enable my employer to offer better risk-adjusted strategies to their stakeholders, which improve the financial well-being of the employer, the client and me.
• Mission: I provide investment decision analyses - based upon well-researched, risk-reducing strategies or transactions - that minimize risk to the investor, incorporating industry best practices.

Recently, I asked more than 35 professional colleagues, executives, clients and associates to participate in an on-line survey of queries designed to answer the question "Who is Dick Hooey?" I also underwent assessments to help me better define who I am. The document in the link is a summary of the findings of these assessments, as well as the responses of that broad cross-section of people in the survey.
