The ICE Conference Planning Committee is pleased to announce these professionally acclaimed speakers who will headline our 2023 conference event. 


Ross Shafer
Ross Shafer has the most intriguing Comedy & Business background of any speaker on leading through change, reinvention, and resilience.

Ross’s funny and energetic style was honed as a headlining comedian and host of TV’s Match Game (ABC), The Late Show (FOX), Almost Live! (NBC and Comedy Central) and Love Me, Love Me Not (USA).

Embracing his humorous world view explains why Ross risked buying and selling 23 companies (each rescued from bankruptcy) and earning the savvy to author ten insightful business books. Ross’s fresh takeaways are fun and sticky … and he delivers the creativity to ignite and inspire front line staff as well as senior executives.
