FPAAZ Hosts Michael Kitces for High-Impact Industry Dialogue

Arizona continues to distinguish itself as a hub for forward-thinking financial planning, as the Financial Planning Association of Arizona (FPAAZ) recently hosted nationally recognized industry thought leader Michael Kitces for an in-depth discussion on the future of the advisory profession.

The event, co-sponsored by Priority Financial Group and TCI Wealth Advisors, brought together financial advisors from across the state for a candid, solutions-oriented conversation on evolving business models, talent development, and the changing needs of today’s consumers. By hosting one of the most influential voices in financial planning, FPAAZ reinforced Arizona’s growing role as a center for innovation, professional collaboration, and leadership within the industry.

Elevating the Conversation Through Community.

The session opened with an interactive format that allowed attendees to submit and upvote questions in real time, ensuring that the discussion addressed the most pressing concerns facing advisors today. Topics ranged from industry-wide risks and fee pressure to staffing challenges and demographic shifts—issues that directly impact both advisors and the communities they serve.

FPAAZ’s emphasis on engagement and education reflects a broader commitment to strengthening the profession locally. By fostering open dialogue and knowledge-sharing, Arizona advisors are better equipped to deliver high-quality, client-centered advice in an increasingly complex financial landscape.
