Listen today to learn why “funny is the honey that makes your stories stick.”
Ray Engan was a shy little boy who used to avoid talking to strangers by walking inside the safety of his Mom’s wrap around skirts. He went on to a career in stand-up comedy, performing with and writing for some of America’s best comedians.
He left comedy for corporate America, and immediately found failure in the business world… until he added the skill of connecting through comedy to the business world. He became a decorated leader in several large companies and wound up as the sales manager of America’s most award-winning small business.
Ray has testified before a presidential task force, and appeared on MSNBC, as The Voice of Small Business in America.
After reading a London Business School study on the value of humor and storytelling in the workplace, Ray went back and uncovered the processes he had used to create more productivity, increased sales with increased staff retention, and a faster training program. He reverse-engineered his success and uncovered a repeatable business success formula.
Today he gives workshops around the country teaching America’s business leaders how to create better, happier, more productive workers through humorous storytelling in the workplace, with his program, Leadership Through Laughter.
Ray Engan is an award-winning motivational speaker, coach, and storyteller. He is the current President and CEO of Leadership Through Laughter.
