Brooke Kelley, co-founder of The Kelley Group, says professionals are feeling an urgent need for crisis training, “When we launched our crisis communications training teleseminars for financial advisors, they were immediately oversubscribed, and the feedback we received proved how important it is for business leaders and financial advisors to know how to effectively communicate during difficult times.”
The documentary will feature The Kelley Group’s co-founders, Sarano and Brooke Kelley. Sarano has been rated the number #1 speaker for the financial services industry by the SIA Wharton School of Business and was previously a top producer and leading trainer for the oldest and largest Fortune 500 communications and media training firm in the nation. He also was media skills coach for The President’s White House Fellows for two years. He and Brooke Kelley have coached countless CEOs and C-suite executives in communication skills.
Sarano says, “The leaders of companies and those driving the financial markets have to be a voice of reason during these stressful times. During this pandemic, they have to pull together with governments to stem panic and irrational behaviors that only worsen an already challenging situation.”
