The Seven Stages of Money Maturity®

This 2-Day course helps planners understand the actual drivers and biases around money and the innocent/habitual messages on which clients base their financial decisions. After going through a series of listening exercises and illustrative storytelling of the Seven Stages philosophy, you’ll be able to recognize the signs of each of the stages and how to best support your client’s unique situation. Graduates find themselves to be better listeners and better equipped to deeply understand their client’s and their own money drivers and biases. The course introduces the EVOKE® Life Planning methodology as a framework for prompting open-ended conversations that help you know your client and how they ascribe meaning to money. EVOKE® is a signature series of meetings that help you guide clients to discover and live into their lives of greatest meaning.

A companion to George Kinder’s book, The Seven Stages of Money Maturity, which pioneered the financial life planning movement over 20 years ago, this is a course that benefits you both personally and professionally to become more independent and assured in your relationship with money. Use the Seven Stages to control money’s purpose instead of it controlling you. Learn more about the Seven Stages of Money Maturity on the registration page.

Pre-Cons: Saturday, October 8


The Perfect RIA Panel of Success

The single best way to achieve the next level of success is to find people who are already there and learn how they did it. What systems did they implement? What mistakes did they make that you can avoid? How did they overcome what looks to you like an impossible barrier to success? What can you ‘rip-off-and-deploy’ today in your practice to catapult you to the next level?

The Perfect RIA Panel of Success is your chance to learn from and interact with rockstar advisors who are crushing it every day in their practice. Well, not EVERY day as each of our panelists takes great pride in spending more days out of the office than in the office, but you get the idea.

This is NOT for the faint of heart. If your goals for 2023 are to ‘add a couple of clients’ or ‘grow 10%’, you should probably skip this event. If, however, your goals include ‘double my practice’ or ‘take twice as much time off work’ or ‘add $250k of new revenue’ or ‘delegate twice as much’, then your best path to success is to learn from those who have already done what you are trying to do.
