George Kinder In The Media

George D. Kinder and Lee Korn chat about the value of the life planning process for financial advisors and the philosophy behind why it works so well. George says that life planning involves "listening to the client in a way that they can feel your responsiveness to both the challenges that they've had in their life... and the things that they just love to do." The rapport built through this deep listening allows clients to feel comfortable and eager to share with their planner what would deliver them a life of profound meaning and fulfillment. As a graduate of the EVOKE® Life Planning Training, Lee shares his experience attending the course and implementing the method into his practice.

George Kinder is featured on FP Today and discusses what advisers can do when their clients share dreams for a future that is seemingly impossible to deliver.

The first step is to ask ourselves, "who's “impossible dream” is it?" Our filters, tied to budgets and personal experiences, can prevent us from allowing our clients to dream their best lives. Registered Life Planner® professionals are trained to handle these circumstances with empathy and to deliver a vision to their clients with them having already achieved their dreams. When presented with the facts of their (financial) situation, our clients will astound us with how they can deliver their aspirations or come as close to them as possible.
