A recent participant—a senior leader who has worked at Apple, Google, and Picsart—called Shannan's leadership offsite "hands down the best I've ever attended."

Shannan Scarselletta is a leadership and change expert who transforms Fortune 500 organizations through "a fun, neuroscience-backed, practical methodology that translates strategy into tangible behaviors." Over the past decade, her company has coached over 400 Fortune 500 leaders from the C-Suite to the front line, earning an exceptional 99% recommendation rate.

Shannan earned her degree in Philosophy at Cornell University where she was the Captain of the Women’s Basketball team, earning a trip to the 2008 NCAA Tournament. Shannan started her career as a change management consultant at IBM later moving to North Highland Consulting. Whenever Shannan wasn’t working, she was performing Improv at Second City and Upright Citizens Brigade in Los Angeles as well as iO and ComedySportz.

Shannan's nationwide Improv experience revealed what consulting lacked: the power of spontaneous, authentic connection. She founded ImproVision Consulting in 2015 to help leaders achieve their transformational goals by putting strategy into action—mastering powerful communication, adaptive thinking, and storytelling that inspires genuine change. Since then, Shannan has helped leaders all over the world from Utilities, Oil & Gas, Tech, Retail and Finance not only execute the change but be the change.

Rather than teaching leadership theory, Shannan creates leaders who thrive in uncertainty. Her memorable keynotes combine practical tools with interactive exercises, leaving attendees feeling inspired and equipped with concrete strategies for building high-performing teams and navigating complex challenges with agility and resilience.

Shannan lives in Houston with her husband Michael and two children. In her spare time, she enjoys perusing estate sales, teaching Improv classes and volunteering.
