The Southgate Effect: Why You Need A Financial Coach

The right coach can make a big difference: just ask the England football team! A financial adviser is the coach that could be the missing link in your quest for financial success.

Gareth Southgate has well and truly secured his national treasure status in England for his leadership skills even if the team fell at the last hurdle to secure runner up status in the Euros.

Praise has been heaped on Southgate from all quarters for his coaching style. He has brought out the best in his team with a considered long-term strategy which has now paid off. His leadership and guidance, both on and off the pitch, has delivered incredible results.

Having a talented coach has made all the difference to the England team and the benefit of a coach can be seen in many areas of life, not just team sports.

A personal trainer helps individuals to define and reach their fitness goals, a life coach helps people work out what they want in life and how to achieve it and a financial planner helps investors to outline their financial objectives and the route to fulfilling those goals.

When it comes to finances, having a coach on board could really make a difference to your financial planning success. Just as England’s current form is the culmination of a long-term strategy, your future financial security can be assured by working with a professional adviser over the long term.

A financial adviser will help you define your goals and stick to them when motivation starts to fade. They will empower you to make sound financial decisions and hold you accountable when you veer off track.

Of course, you have to find the right fit. Southgate was preceded by numerous managers who failed to bring the England team anywhere near victory in a big international tournament. You need an adviser who is client-focused, independent and trustworthy. It’s worth taking the time to find the right person but when you do, you will make a winning team.
