EL SEGUNDO, Calif.,
Dec. 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- In
the year that financial wellness has become the most sought after
new employee benefit (according to MetLife and other benefits
providers), Financial Finesse, with pioneer CEO Liz Davidson at the helm, has been quietly
cementing its position as the industry leader. Securing more than a
dozen awards in 2017 alone the company recently added five
Best in Biz awards to the list. Winners are chosen by a panel of
editorial thought leaders who evaluate companies' social and
economic impact.
Financial Finesse's programs, which are delivered as an employee
benefit to a fast-growing roster of the nation's largest Fortune
1000 companies, beat out hundreds of firms to become the "Most
Awarded" company by Best in Biz, passing giants like Ernst &
Young and Aflac for innovations in the financial industry.
Along with four other awards, the company took home the coveted
Gold award for the Most Innovative Product of the Year for its
proprietary Behavioral Change Model™.
The company's Behavioral Change Model™ is rapidly setting the
standard for the financial wellness industry due to its success in
both reducing employer bottom line costs and improving employees'
financial wellness. It provides employees with unlimited access to
personalized financial coaching through a combination of in-person
consultations, phone-based coaching, group education, online and
mobile services. All services work seamlessly together to deliver
the ongoing financial coaching and guidance employees need to
achieve their financial goals. Eighty-nine percent of employees who
participate in the company's programs make at least three
significant changes to their finances within 30 days, with the most
common changes being reducing their debt, cutting expenses, and
increasing savings for long-term financial goals.
According to Davidson, the Behavioral Change Model™ is at the
core of the company's innovation strategy. Nick Lapworth, who heads product development for
the firm adds, "our Behavioral Change Model™ has created a
whole new paradigm that puts the employee at the center of the
experience and builds a support structure and system of
accountability based on the way they manage their financial
life."
Davidson says being recognized by Best in Biz is a tremendous
honor, crediting her team for their commitment to continual
innovation in what is a very rapidly changing market. She adds that
Financial Finesse's team is passionate about helping other
companies focused on making a significant social impact innovate
their products and services. She recognizes that the majority of
innovation is driven from small teams with big ideas and a new way
of looking at problems. The firm is in the process of developing a
series of best practices webinars on innovation and other key
business strategies that will launch in January, 2018. To register,
