Returning to the FICP Annual Conference as our Master of Ceremonies, Jon Petz is a two-time, best-sellers list author and motivational keynote speaker on performance and the power of human connections. He brings this passion and energy for performance, purpose and impact to events of all types, as well as to those he professionally coaches to strengthen their performance mindset and success in life, business and careers.

Jon is a former sales and marketing executive in big corporate as well as a tech entrepreneur. As a remarkable addition, Jon is a professional magician and has performed around the globe for audiences of all types. This one-of-a-kind combination brings relevancy, experience and understanding to the real-world challenges and opportunities we face in our professional pursuits. It also produces a masterful storytelling, engagement and entertainment factor that is uniquely and unequivocally the Jon Petz Experience. Far more than “JUST” a keynote or conference emcee, it is the perfected trifecta of strategy and mindset, personal inspiration and incredible entertainment.

USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, CNBC, ABC News, Success Magazine and many other media outlets have covered the success of Jon Petz and his quest to help people engage deeper, perform better and fuel growth personally and professionally. His second book, Boring Meetings Suck ™, was named by Inc. Magazine as a top ten and must-read business book.

Jon’s third book, Significance In Simple Moments, has gone through six printings and focuses on human connections to help you achieve significance. Profits from this book are donated in support of the Miracles & Magic™ Foundation — a show which was founded by Jon and his family. Miracles & Magic is a Las Vegas-style, grand illusion and comedy magic show that provides children with life-threatening illnesses a chance to forget about the treatments, shots and hospital, and instead shares the wonder and joy of comedy, magic and illusion.
