Comedy Lineup
John Garrett
Emcee: John Garrett
John Garrett, award-winning author and people-centric leadership speaker, is on a mission to create thriving workplaces. What the CPA-turned-professional comedian-turned two-time Emmy nominee may do best is champion the human side of professionals, consulting with organizations to develop more productive cultures while shining a light on their people’s rich lives outside of work. And his book, What’s Your “And”?, was named a Distinguished Favorite by the Independent Press Awards.
