Kelly’s cringe efforts to be a self-styled corporate thought-leader are plumbing new depths.
, one gets the impression he thinks the world’s accountants wake up every morning feeling “very bad about themselves” and need a higher calling.
Accountants aren’t Excel monkeys, making sure assets and liabilities are in shape. No! Striding across the stage, slide clicker in one hand, and wearing a navy Canada Goose gilet, here’s the accountants’ prophet to show the way. Hell, don’t let an ASX update go to waste, Brett: Kelly headed sections of the release with quotes from Amazon god; statistics on the “Australian diaspora” footnoted to a Wikipedia entry; and there was even a reference to one of his investor idols, inspiring people with social media updates; what are you doing today?
Even Kelly wouldn’t be the first to see the drab surrounds of the accounting profession and think, “you know, this all isn’t Hollywood enough for me”. To thinkKelly is the largest shareholder in Kelly+Partners, with 22 million of its 45 million shares on issue. So, even if company resources support this puffery, it hits Kelly’s pocket the most.It’s the latest example of business leaders getting it the wrong way around.
