Milo Shapiro

In what will probably be the most interactive keynote you've ever attended, Milo's keynote is two-fold.  The first half is stories on risk-taking and moving past the fear of failure as we strive for greater results. 

The second half is where the real laughter comes out.  Milo leading the group in games of improvisation that they play in pairs in the audience.  As the room fills with laughter and attendees get more comfortable with one another, Milo points out the lessons in each game, ranging from fear of risk-taking to communication breakdowns to leadership/support.

Rather than sitting and laughing at a comedian, Milo has the whole room laughing at themselves as they play these exciting games that are definitely outside the norm.  It's a great kick-off or mid-conference energy boost to help people connect through laughter.

Milo has led beginners at organizations like Southwest Airlines, the US Department of Defense, and Computer Sciences Corporation through his keynotes and teambuilding programs.
