On this episode of The ifa Show, host Shy-ann Arkinstall sits down with Gus Taylor, the founder of Sheffield Financial Group (not the politician), to discuss why he thinks professional year advisers are actually an asset for small businesses, rather than a liability.
While acknowledging there are risks that come with having a PY, Gus argues that it's worth it to be able to shape an adviser to meet the standards and needs of your business and give back to the profession.
Listen as we discuss:
Why emotional intelligence and soft skills are more important than technical knowhow in PYs.
How to have conversations about future career plans with staff.
Why you should get PYs in front of clients from day one.
