Helping someone improve his or her finances typically requires changing habits and attitudes. It means not only teaching skills like budgeting, but also encouraging people to understand their motivation behind spending and develop new methods to motivate them to save. Unfortunately, these discussions can be tough and uncomfortable.

This web seminar will cover how the behavioral/psychological side of money comes into play when working with clients and will teach you how to use Money Habitudes to better connect with and understand your clients.
