Tim & Kris O'Shea
Described as "Saturday Night Live for business," humorous motivational speakers Tim and Kris O'Shea offer one-of-a-kind business humor programs. Merging an entertaining delivery style with relevant subject matter, the O'Sheas' innovative corporate humor programs will get your attendees motivated about workplace challenges in our fast-paced world.
Tim O'Shea has been a corporate comedian and humor writer for radio, stage, and industrial video productions since 1990. Besides training with The Second City, he toured nationally as a stand-up comic for 12 years, sharing the stage with the likes of Norm MacDonald, George Lopez, Dave Chappelle, and Larry the Cable Guy. He also augmented his comedic skills by frequently performing with sketch and improv groups, keeping his humor well rounded and quick witted.
Tim worked several corporate jobs while seeking his big break in comedy. The duality of hanging out with film and television stars at night and then sitting in a pale blue cube the next day around the dullest and unfunniest people on the planet kept Tim's life rich with irony.
As a member of the corporate world, Tim was a top-producing sales representative for a Fortune 500, $3.5 billion-a-year computer wholesaler. He then put his talents to work as a sales assessor and human resources consultant for Qwest Communications, recruiting the best of their best. His business humor expertise was later solicited by CareerTrack as a script writer for a line of training videos.
Described as "absolutely hilarious" again and again by corporate audiences across a broad range of industries, Kris O'Shea's on-stage appeal draws on a broad spectrum of experience. Since 1991, she has honed her comedic talents by training with The Second City, performing at the legendary Esther's Follies in Austin, Texas, and studying at the Dell'Arte International School of Physical Theatre in northern California. While expanding her comedy skills in humor hotspots, she worked a day job as an educator and later became a sales consultant for a private corporation.
Beginning as a top sales rep, she was quickly promoted to the position of sales trainer. Kris worked at breakneck speed to develop and deliver sales, product, and technical training for new accounts as the company tripled in size over a three-year period. Dealing with the fast pace of constant corporate change, Kris was able to survive by keeping her sense of humor.
As humorous keynote speakers, the O'Sheas' background of performance talent and business sense produces a genuine understanding of their audiences and laughter that lasts.
