England football superstars Beth Mead MBE and Lucy Bronze MBE have been announced to speak at the Personal Finance Society (PFS) National Conference next month. The flagship annual event will bring together financial planning professionals from across the UK to enjoy a carefully curated programme designed to close knowledge ‘gaps’ and deliver great outcomes for clients.
PFS President Carla Brown will join the 2022 and 2025 European Champions for an inspiring discussion of how they have overcome their own challenges, through unyielding determination, resilience, and ambition. They will share stories, insights, and actions that will motivate attendees to find their own ‘marginal gains’ and more.
With more than 25 sessions across five theatres, the Lionesses will share the stage with technical experts who will explore the talent, advice, innovation, and generation gaps faced by the sector, with thoughtful consideration of how each can be addressed.
Keynotes include Geoff Ramm, renowned as one of the world’s most inspirational customer service speakers, who will provide critical insight on how to retain clients for years to come. Geoff has worked with entrepreneurs, high performance teams and organisations across 54 countries to create award winning ideas to outperform the competition. The FCA will also be represented, with Kate Tuckley, Head of Consumer Investments Supervision Department.
