In a Crowded Landscape, We'll Elevate You

OUR DISTINCTIVE VALUE

1:1 Coaching

We work directly with news anchors, reporters, meteorologists and sports broadcasters looking to sharpen on-camera presence, message delivery and storytelling impact. Our services include demo reel assessment and guidance. In addition, we can help with contract negotiation, style & image consulting (hair/make-up/wardrobe), career strategy and more.

Team Coaching

TV and radio alike, we work directly with station leadership to identify coaching needs, lift talent and build chemistry within the team. Focus areas build presence and polish through “script to impact” delivery sessions where producers and directors are also involved and elevated.

Enterprise Coaching

We work directly with corporate broadcast entities or station groups — aligning your market-to-market identity and message, maximizing talent development, and building a network of talent ready to climb within your station properties.

OUR TEAM

KRAIG KANN

PRESIDENT, FOUNDER

“At Kann Advisory, we’ve helped big corporate brands and their top-level professionals to reach new heights in their industry as powerful communicators, dynamic storytellers and engaging brand ambassadors. Our broadcast program ties in many of those same principles. We’ll elevate on-air talent and help create – in them – a brand worth following.

The founder of Kann Advisory Group, Kraig spent eight years in local markets as a news and sports reporter and anchor before reaching the network level as one of NBC Golf Channel’s original on-air personalities. He rose to become the network’s main studio host and handled the lead play-by-play role for three years during an 18-year run. He then pivoted to a C-Suite communications role for the LPGA. Kraig’s vast experience also includes radio as he hosted his own show on SiriusXM for five years. He has a podcast “Tracks To Success,” has authored a best-selling book “Can You Get Our Attention?” and teaches broadcast students at Full Sail University in Orlando, FL.

DAVE SHORE

VICE PRESIDENT

“Looking back, I wish I’d had access to the kind of career guidance, communication coaching, and on-air presentation training we offer at KBTC. These programs are designed to be transformational, and the takeaway tools can accelerate an individual’s career and set an enterprise’s talent roster apart in a very crowded industry.”

A Vice President with Kann Broadcast Talent Coaching, Dave Shore is a veteran media executive with decades of experience in major markets, including Los Angeles and Dallas. A former ESPN on-air personality and accomplished radio executive, he’s led content strategy and talent development for top-rated stations and has coached talent such as Colin Cowherd, Stephen A.

In addition to his leadership in broadcast, Dave brings C-suite nonprofit experience, offering clients a rare blend of business acumen and storytelling expertise. At KBTC, Shore leads consulting for media organizations, guiding talent, developing unique coaching programs, and helping partners elevate both performance and profitability.

MEG GREEN

SENIOR DIRECTOR

“In my 30-plus years in the industry, no talent has ever told me they received enough feedback. Kann Advisory is a well-established leader in the space of executive branding and presentation skills and that combined with the expertise of our amazing coaches will provide a very unique perspective to the clients we serve.”

The day-to-day leader of KAG’s Broadcast Talent Coaching division, Meg brings a resume unparalleled in the coaching and mentoring space. In three decades at ESPN, she transformed departments and people through lead roles in production that ultimately carried her to the top of the network’s management team steering on-air talent recruitment, talent assessment and contract negotiations. Among her standout talents is a keen ability to identify current strengths and long-term potential of emerging on-air personalities. With powerful connections and a law degree on her resume, few are in her class when it comes to all phases of consulting. The gift of time with Meg will no doubt help clients see a path to becoming a talent that gets noticed.

DAVID KAMENS

SENIOR DIRECTOR

“I’ve always believed the best programs start with a great idea – and a smart plan – to bring it to life. Joining this talented team on the development side is an exciting opportunity to create enriching experiences. And whatever the outlet, elevating someone’s ability to express their best still lights me up.”

The leader of business and program development for KBTC, David is an award-winning television producer and director whose vast resume also includes film screenwriting, hosting and digital content storytelling. Most recently, he directed live games during the inaugural season of Unrivaled Women’s 3-on-3 basketball on Turner Sports and produced for NBC’s Paris Olympics. Kamens has developed – or personally created – more than 20 original series. As a department head at Golf Channel, David helmed 100 episodes of “Playing Lessons” that helped define the network’s early voice and later, as a creative executive at NBC Sports NW, his team earned seven Emmy nominations, taking home three wins. Kamens takes a lead role here to develop business relationships and unique coaching programs.

ROB JOHNSON

SENIOR ADVISOR

“I’m thrilled to be joining Kann Advisory Group to work with other talented pros who’ve risen the ranks to great success in the broadcasting and media industry. We’re not just in the business of creating dynamic communicators, we’re in the brand-building business and I think our clients will truly enjoy that part of the process.”

Few understand the landscape and trends of local news and how to reach and sustain success better than Rob. A former major market news anchor in big market cities like Chicago and Houston, Rob has earned multiple Emmy Awards in his career that began with a path through Louisiana and Arkansas. He is also a leading consultant, bringing his expert strategic communications experience to the KAG team. With TV leading his resume, Rob is also a Chicago radio personality and podcast host of “Can You Hear Me?” With a unique ability to help talent find noticeable comfort on the desk and in the field, Rob is ready to help you climb the ladder of success just as he did.

ANTOINE LEWIS

SENIOR ADVISOR

“I am ecstatic to be working with this accomplished group of KAG professionals as we share the same mission to mentor and help talented people improve their craft. I’m committed to providing quality coaching to broadcasters and content creators that helps them achieve their goals.”

A voracious storyteller and content creator, Lewis is a multiple Emmy Award- winning producer who began his career as a field producer for the Today Show and NBC Nightly News. Stops in Cleveland, Chicago, Indianapolis and Denver propelled him to ESPN where he built his brand as one of the network’s top producers on ESPNNEWS before shifting to bigger roles with College Football Live, NFL Live and the chance to guide First Take from its inception. Years working with big name talent, time as an established media consultant, and numerous national awards earned for his TV contributions, there is no doubt he’ll leave a lasting imprint on clients through KAG’s Broadcast Talent Coaching program.

VICTOR ROJAS

SENIOR ADVISOR

“The chance to contribute to the broadcasting field as a coach and mentor is both inspiring and fulfilling. I look forward to sharing my knowledge and insights, aiming to make a meaningful impact. I’ve called some pretty big home runs and I’m excited to help emerging talent hit their own.”

A veteran MLB broadcasting talent, Victor climbed the ranks to become one of the game’s more recognizable faces and voices. Rojas’s broadcasting resume began with the Newark Bears in 2001. Just two years later he was hired by the Arizona Diamondbacks as a radio analyst. A year later, the Texas Rangers called his name and by 2008, MLB Network had hired him as a studio host and play-by-play announcer, also putting him on the desk to officially launch MLB Network in January 2009. Fourteen months later, the Los Angeles Angels made him their television play-by-play announcer. He was the broadcast face of the franchise for 11 seasons calling numerous no-hitters and Albert Pujols’s 3000th hit and 600th home run.
