| financial planning continuing education: Advice That Sticks Moira Somers, 2018-02-28 The advice is sound; the client seems eager; and then... nothing happens! Too often, this is the experience that financial professionals encounter in their daily work. When good recommendations go unimplemented, clients’ well-being is compromised, opportunities are lost, and the professional relationship grows strained. Advice that Sticks takes aim at the problem of financial non-adherence. Written by a neuropsychologist and financial change expert, this book examines the five main factors that determine whether a client will follow through with financial advice. Individual client psychology plays a role in non-adherence; so, too, do sociocultural and environmental factors, general advice characteristics, and specific challenges pertaining to the emotionally loaded domain of money. Perhaps most surprising, however, is the extent to which advice-givers themselves can foil implementation. A great deal of non-adherence is due to preventable mistakes made by financial professionals and their teams. The author integrates her extensive clinical and consulting experience with research findings from the fields of positive psychology, behavioural economics, neuroscience, and medicine. What emerges is a thoughtful, funny, but above all practical guide for anyone who makes a living providing financial advice. It will become an indispensable handbook for people working with clients across the wealth spectrum. |

| financial planning continuing education: Financial Planning 3.0 Richard B Wagner JD CFP®, 2016-07-25 Money is weird stuff. We cannot avoid it but it terrifies and mystifies. Most folks need help relating to it--and lots of it. Most especially, they need their own financial planner, someone who thoroughly understands money, what it is and how it works. Hence Financial Planning 3.0. Written eclectically, Financial Planning 3.0 looks at money and the financial planning profession from both the outside in and, perhaps more importantly, from the inside out. It makes the case for looking at money from the perspectives of individuals and families. This is in stark contrast to money's public persona grounded in macroeconomics and investment theory. It suggests useful resources and tools for working with money helpfully, healthfully and joyfully. Finally, treating money as the most powerful and pervasive secular force on the planet and financial planning as the most important profession of the 21st century, it posits the new liberal arts based academic discipline of Finology. Financial Planning 3.0 includes a proposed curriculum for an education in Finology including a Finology Major's Handbook together with portions of articles the author has written over the past 25 years. This book takes money out of the closet, applies a liberal arts approach to the financial planning profession and its garden of knowledge. It advances the evolution of this profession's work with money, the money forces and individuals with an eye to the future and respect for the past. |
