Tom Bartow left a successful career as a college basketball coach to become one of the top financial advisors at Edward Jones. Tom applied many of the concepts he had learned from John Wooden, the famed basketball coach at UCLA, to create and develop an advanced training program for higher-level advisors at the firm. In June 1999, the American Funds Group offered Tom a unique position: one of his responsibilities was to work with American Funds distributors across the nation to increase the skill set of the entire sales organization. Tom’s insights immediately proved to be highly beneficial to investors and advisors. From 2002 to 2009, Coach Wooden and Tom delivered a one-two punch for the American Funds Advisor Forums. Their friendship was such that Tom was invited to join Coach Wooden at the White House for Coach Wooden’s acceptance of the Medal of Freedom. Coach Wooden said of Tom, “You are something else.”
Tom Bartow and Dr. Jason Selk have become the best of friends and have worked together to bring peak performance techniques from the world of professional athletic competition to the corporate world.
