He wrote and produced the acclaimed comedy album Inside the First Family about the bizarre publicity surrounding the Clinton administration.

Ross has also written and produced 14 Human Resource training films on Customer Service, Employee Relations, Sales, and Motivation.

His books include Nobody Moved Your Cheese! (How to Ignore the Experts and Trust Your Gut) Cook Like A Stud (38 recipes Men can Prepare in the Garage with their own Tools) and The Customer Shouts Back!™ (due in 2005), is a result of 11 years of customer response research. Ross is now convinced the reason customer service hasn't improved is because we haven't tried to understand the customers' emotional state before, during, and after the transaction.

The LA Times writes: "Ross Shafer marries perfect humor with the take home message American business craves."

For 15 years, Ross Shafer has made more than 3,000 meeting planners look like heroes. He's clean, funny, relevant, and always in good taste. He can entertain a group from 50 to 15,000, and his after-dinner keynotes have garnered praise worldwide.

If you want to have fun motivating the troops, there is no better way than to have Ross tell his hilarious story of going from a small town pet store manager to Network TV talk show host…in less than seven years. As an Emmy Award-winning comedian, TV host, HR film Producer, and keynote favorite, Ross underscores the importance of passion, work ethics, and high performance standards in a way that inspires attendees to look beyond mediocre-for good! Ross encourages them to stop blaming others and start being accountable for their own success. Then, he outlines specifically how to do it, making it perfectly clear that Success is your Own Fault.

With the success of his book, "NOBODY MOVED YOUR CHEESE!" coupled with this ragingly popular keynotes, he's been called "America's Accountability Watchdog."

Ross' hilarious approach to self-motivation is a result of transforming himself from a miserable pet shop manager to a SIX-TIME Emmy Award-winning comedian and writer. He has hosted several network talk and game shows, including "THE LATE SHOW" on FOX, "DAYS END" on ABC, "THE NEW MATCH GAME" on ABC and "ALMOST LIVE" for NBC.

Ross' experience as a stand-out after-dinner entertainer, keynote speaker, and seminar leader includes such diverse clients as Microsoft, Apple, Toyota, Sprint, Nordstrom, Discovery Toys, Chevrolet, Boeing, and Blue Cross, to name a few.

He's been a concert headliner and frequent guest on EVENING AT THE IMPROV, THE "A" LIST, CAROLINAS COMEDY HOUR and COMIC STRIP LIVE.

Ross additionally collected over 35 Emmys during his four years with the Seattle hit comedy show, Almost Live!—six going to Ross himself for his work as actor and host, and an IRIS award for the "best entertainment series" in the country.

He's also written and produced 14 funny HR training films on customer service, sales, and motivation, which are distributed worldwide.
