Understanding Investor Personalities: Communicating with Confidence in Uncertain Markets

The September 2026 Women & Finance Knowledge Circle will be held on Thursday, September 10th at 2 pm ET.

Guest speaker Michael Pompian will be presenting, "Understanding Investor Personalities: Communicating with Confidence in Uncertain Markets."

With market volatility and artificial intelligence dominating the headlines, many clients are asking difficult questions about their portfolios, long-term plans, and whether their investments are at risk. In times of uncertainty, an advisor's ability to communicate with confidence and empathy can be just as important as investment expertise.

Join us for a practical discussion on how understanding the four investor personality types can help you tailor conversations, address concerns more effectively, and build greater trust during periods of market uncertainty. You'll learn how different clients process risk, react to market events, and make financial decisions—allowing you to communicate in ways that resonate with each individual's perspective.

In this session, you'll learn how to:

• Recognize the four investor personality types and their unique communication preferences

• Adapt your conversations to better address client concerns during periods of market volatility

• Build confidence and trust by communicating investment strategies in a way that aligns with each client's decision-making style

Whether you're responding to questions about today's markets, AI-driven disruption, or broader economic uncertainty, you'll leave with practical strategies you can immediately apply in client conversations.

This is an excellent opportunity to gain actionable insights, share experiences with fellow advisors, and strengthen one of the most valuable skills in wealth management: effective communication. We look forward to having you join the discussion.
