Helping Adults Help Kids Keynote Speaking

“Frank’s background and expertise are unquestioned, but it is his keen ability to listen and problem-solve with you that I feel sets him apart.”

I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Frank for over 10 years. Frank’s talent has contributed to executive coaching opportunities for my leadership team; countywide trauma-informed curriculum to support client engagement; and consultation on high-liability issues across our youth-serving systems.

“Frank’s work helped our school be named a 2024 High Flying School – an accomplishment not possible without the collaboration from Kros Learning Group.”

“Frank’s ability to distill complex concepts into practical, actionable strategies is nothing short of remarkable.”

Whether discussing the intricacies of brain development or the nuances of trauma-informed care, he consistently provides insights that are both profound and accessible. His teachings have significantly shaped individuals and systems, fostering environments that support resilience and healing.”

“Frank is truly one of the best minds and best communicators in the field of children’s services and applied neuroscience.”

I have worked closely with Frank Kros since the early 1980’s on many creative and innovative projects, as well as on extremely challenging and complex issues. I have always found him to be a creative thinker, outstanding teacher and an effective consultant.

“Frank brings his passion for the content and his expertise in delivery to each project and to each participant.”

Frank has been an exceptional partner to Ready Aim Teach. His course, The ADHD Brain: What Works, What Doesn't, and Why has transformed lives!

“Frank Kros is a master of engaging presentations. He works with you before the event to customize the content to the audience and acknowledge their present capacity. His use of collaborative processes merged with new learning motivates participants to stretch their thinking. He always hits the mark!”

“Frank’s passion and knowledge are infectious.”

Frank's work with us has had a transformative effect on our department and our juvenile justice system. He’s helped us to achieve culture change, a clear departmental vision, and a strong system of employee development that aligns with our values.

“Frank is a dynamic speaker and has enabled many of our judges to better understand relevant behavioral science principles. His voice is powerful as is his message.”

Frank has presented to numerous small and large groups of judges in Anne Arundel County and across the state of Maryland. During one of his talks, one of our judges said, “If what he says is true (and of course it was) we have to change what we do!” Frank is one of the most effective speakers I have ever seen.

“Through collaborative work with Frank for over 5 years, I learned invaluable ways to support my team, manage my time, and establish and accomplish my goals of personal growth and professional success.”

Frank educates himself and others in innovative and interactive ways, which fosters and bolsters interest and engagement in positive change.

“When I asked Frank to present at our national conference (several times) he received nothing but 5-Star ratings.”

Something that sets Frank apart is that he doesn't have a canned approach. He takes time to get to know his client thoroughly, drafts up an approach, checks with the client to make sure it is on target, and then comes in full bore, addressing the heart of the matter, cracking the problem code all the way to solution.

“For many years Frank has been one of my key and most impactful workshop facilitators for all things related to positively impacting the personal and academic school lives of our most vulnerable students.”

"I have had the immense pleasure of working with Frank on multiple pro bono projects on behalf of Maryland’s children over the past decade. Frank’s precision, engagement with his clients, and the ability to translate complex scientific concepts into simple, but not simplistic terms is exceptional.”

“Frank’s presentations appeal to a wide audience, from brain development experts to those with minimal knowledge of the subject, and everyone in the room will walk away having learned something new.”

Frank has spoken at multiple TNOYS conferences, and the audience consistently reports that he was one of their favorite workshop presenters and keynote speakers. Throughout the course of one day, Frank presented two 90-minute workshops and delivered the closing keynote, and he remained captivating and inspiring through each session. Frank teaches tangible skills that participants can apply directly to the work they do.

"My staff has requested over and over that Frank return."

Frank has conducted several professional development series in our district and all of his presentations are highly engaging and practical. Staff are able to implement his strategies quickly after attending professional development. Frank is highly knowledgeable in social and emotional development and the ways in which schools can proactively respond to meet the needs of all students.
