Milo Shapiro: Motivational Speaker,
Team Builder,
Public Speaking Coach/ Trainer/ Author
www. IMPROVentures. com
Milo Shapiro walked away from his B. S. in Computer Science and fifteen years in Information Technology to pursue his passion: applying improvisation to business practices, presentation skills, and personal development. On his last day, a co-worker whispered, "Who's going to make it fun to work here now?"
Milo began studying improvisation in 1990, joined his first troupe in 1992, and began teaching in 1993. He has traveled in the US and Canada to continue his own improvisation education and teaching skills. He served six years as the business manager of the comedy troupe TheatreSports. Through TheatreSports, with whom he performed for 14 years, he worked with at-risk teens using improv to give them a healthier outlet for expression.
The former Toastmaster and National Speakers Association board member also offers offers business services as a speaker, a trainer and a coach. His self-created training program, TEAMprovising, has created a team connectedness, improved communication and boosted innovation in diverse groups - ranging from I. T. engineers at Sempra Energy to processing clerks at Computer Science Corporation to customer service operators at San Diego Gas & Electric (during the California energy crisis of 2000) to staff at the U. S. Department of Defense (whose jobs he still cannot discuss.)
As attendees kept approaching Milo after keynotes asking if he would be willing to coach them or work with their staff, Milo developed an off-shoot division of his business called Public Dynamics. This coaching and training led to Milo publishing his book Public Speaking: Get A's, Not Zzzzzz's and eventually the development of a keynote with the same name, featuring a lively, story-filled speech with ten key points from the book.
