San Jose, CA (PRWEB) October 05, 2017
Loring Ward held its annual National Education Conference September 17-19 in Colorado Springs, CO for almost 200 independent Advisors. The Conference focused on insights and best practices to help Advisors enhance their client experience and deliver more value to clients at every phase of life.
Conference attendees heard compelling main stage presentations, including from Bernie Clark, Executive Vice President and Head of Schwab Advisor Services, on how to build stronger client relationships; Frank Luntz, Founder/Chairman of Luntz Global, on developing more effective messaging; Joe Navarro, speaker, educator and author of “Louder Than Words,” on understanding non-verbal communication; Chip Roame, Managing Partner at Tiburon Strategic Advisors, on why there has never been a better time to be a financial advisor; and Dennis Moseley-Williams, Experience Economy Specialist, on the importance of creative transformative client experiences.
One of the highlights of the conference was a special interactive Experience Walk that featured a display of the Office of Tomorrow, insights and best practices for each area of the client advisory process, presentations from Advisors and demos of supporting tools and technologies. According to Erich Reinhardt, VP of Advisor Relations with Loring Ward, “The Experience Walk was grounded in our belief that delivering an exceptional client experience built around a comprehensive and consistent client advisory process, will be the hallmark of great Advisors.”
During the Conference, Loring Ward also presented Loring Ward Chairman and founder, Alan Werba, with its Heritage Award. Past winners of the Loring Ward Heritage Award include David Booth, CEO and Founder of Dimensional Fund Advisors, Dan Wheeler of Dimensional Fund Advisors (retired), and John Bowen and Carl Reinhardt, Loring Ward’s other two founders.
“I can say unequivocally that we would not be sitting here in this room without Alan Werba,” said President and CEO Alex Potts. “Alan is the ethos of our company. It is what he does for his clients every day that inspires and guides us at Loring Ward.”
