MEMPHIS, TN, UNITED STATES, July 7, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Diversified Trust, an employee-owned wealth management firm, today announced new leadership appointments in its Memphis office, reflecting continued momentum and a longstanding commitment to thoughtful succession planning. These transitions underscore the firm’s focus on continuity and its strong tradition of developing leaders from within.
As part of this carefully planned transition, Brad Crawford has been named Managing Principal of the Memphis office. Crawford has played a key role alongside Brook Lester, who served as Managing Principal, for many years. Brad is a trusted partner to clients and colleagues across the firm as well as a valued member of the Memphis community. His deep institutional knowledge and perspective, shaped by years of trusted leadership, position him well to guide the office into its next chapter.

In this role, he will focus on bringing teams together and ensuring the Memphis office remains strongly aligned for continued growth and client service.
As announced earlier this year, Brook Lester will transition to serve as President of Diversified Trust effective January 1, 2027. For several years, Lester has led the Memphis office as Managing Principal, strengthening its team, elevating service standards and reinforcing a culture rooted in excellence and collaboration.
“Leading the Memphis office has been one of the great privileges of my career,” said Lester. “I am proud of the strength of this team and what we’ve built together. It’s a foundation that will continue to serve our clients and our colleagues well in the years ahead.”
“Brad and Tucker reflect the strength of our Memphis team and the culture we have built over time,” Lester added. “I’ve worked closely with both of them for many years, and I’m excited to see them step into these roles and continue building on that momentum.”
“This leadership transition reflects the strength of our culture and the depth of talent we have developed over time,” said Lee Gibson, President of Diversified Trust. “Brad and Tucker exemplify the values that define our firm: thoughtful leadership, collaboration and a long-term commitment to clients and one another.
