Transamerica Welcomes Chris Gardner to its Third Annual Coaching Forums

Best-Selling Author and Community Leader to Speak at Business Building Workshops

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- In uncertain economic times, clients need a reliable advisor they can trust to understand their investing concerns and to help them reach their long-term goals. Transamerica Capital Management’s (Transamerica’s) third annual Coaching Forums, to be held in the spring of 2011, will take a closer look at these important aspects of the financial services profession, giving advisors timely insight and actionable tools they can use to establish strong, trusting relationships with their clients, and ultimately grow their businesses.

No one better understands the importance of building personal relationships than Chris Gardner, the man whose bestselling book, “The Pursuit of Happyness,” inspired a major motion picture. Just 25 years ago, Gardner was homeless. Today, he is the owner and CEO of the successful brokerage firm Gardner Rich LLC. Transamerica welcomes Gardner to its 2011 Coaching Forums, where he will share his inspirational story of overcoming obstacles, “breaking cycles,” and hard-won success. Gardner will recount his fears of failure, the exhaustion of his pursuit, and his great appreciation for those who helped him.

This captivating motivational speaker will be joining two other high-profile speakers at Transamerica’s Coaching Forums: political and legislative expert Andy Friedman, and financial services professional Nick Murray.

Four Coaching Forums are slated for the following locations and dates:

•Washington, DC: March 24-25

•Orlando, FL: March 31-April 1

•San Diego, CA: May 5-6

•Chicago, IL: May 19-20
