“I’m worried about the uncertainty out there” That’s what one panellist told us when we asked how in control and responsible she feels about her financial future. And for those who feel negatively about the outlook, 41% said their biggest worry is external factors outside of their control*. ❓If you’re communicating a pension change, it’s worth keeping this in mind – the changes you’re sharing are probably part of a much bigger (and potentially emotional) picture for people, that feels out of their control. Here’s your checklist for success: ✅ Anticipate and acknowledge your members’ feelings – consider all of the possible emotional responses so you can shape the communication to meet the needs of your people. ✅ Build up their knowledge – over explain what’s happened, the process, what will happen next and what it means for them. ✅ Consider their mindset – recognise this in your words and minimise stress by being clear about how the problem is being solved, what they need to do, and enable them to feedback. ✅ Build trust – be clear, consistent, concise and focus more on the ‘why’ than the ‘what’. Want to find out how to put these techniques into practice? Book a call: www.likeminds.uk.com *That’s according to our latest research of people saving into a UK pension scheme.
