The Advisor Solutions Podcast EP 123- How to Break Bad News
Breaking bad news is never easy, especially when it comes to money, the market, or not getting the coverage that your client wants. But one thing is certain: at some point in your career, you are going to have to break bad news to someone. The real question is, has anyone ever expressed to you the best way to do that?
Most financial advisors, insurance agents, wholesalers, branch managers, and even agency managers don’t have a specific strategy to share bad news. The topic of “how to break bad news” benefits from a stepwise approach for an advisor to make difficult situations less challenging to discuss.
Rather than merely telling people what is going wrong, having a process of how to break the bad news is essential. The delivery of bad news is important as a client might feel shocked, defensive, and, in some cases, angry- and you don’t want to add to their angst because of how they heard about it.
This episode shares practical strategies successful advisors and agents have used to create a better connection when discussing difficult subjects. These are not just theoretical concepts but actionable steps you can implement in your practice.
