Manage episode 428075668 series 3560176
In Episode #19 of NAPFA Nation, Amy Irvine of Rooted Planning Group, shares with podcast host Marie Swift her journey in financial planning. From rebranding her firm, empowering women in financial planning, attracting male clients too, promoting pay equity and DEI within the firm, building client relationships, creating an ensemble of talented women professionals at Rooted Planning Group, and embracing NAPFA membership, Irvine has accomplished a lot in her financial services career.
In a nutshell:
- Irvine encourages all team members and NAPFA members to complete NAPFA's DEI training and to promote their involvement in NAPFA activities
- She explains the rationale behind rebranding from Irvine Wealth Planning Strategies to Rooted Planning Group and why she focuses on empowering women in financial planning
- Providing education and advice without requiring high assets under management – lives under care, not assets under management – has helped the firm attract clients
- Rooted Planning Group also attracts male clients who value the education and advice provided because men seek to set an example for their daughters or desire the educational approach of the firm
- Irvine discusses pay equity within her firm and transparency in salaries, as well as efforts to coach clients on achieving pay equity in their own careers
- Embracing DEI strengthens client relationships by addressing unconscious biases
