How can firm owners use behavioral finance theory to make better business decisions?
Today on Framework, Ana Trujillo Limón, Director, Coaching and Advisor Content, speaks with Julie Ragatz, Ph.D., Vice President, NextGen and Advisor Development Programs at Carson Group, about the practical applications of behavioral finance theory in business and recruitment.
