“I live on the East Coast with my beautiful wife, and am very proud of my three grown children. Our family business is the military, and we have traced back our ancestors’ service to the Civil War. On the lighter side, traveling to new places and finding a brewery’s best batch are hobbies I like to do. I’m also a musician. I like to play the guitar. Whether in a small venue or with a band, it is something I really enjoy. I am passionate about creative writing, good leadership, and horseback riding. I look forward to learning more about you and your team, and what drives you to succeed.”

How experience leads to better results.

Ivan F. Ingraham is an acclaimed writer, speaker, and storyteller. He retired as a Lieutenant Colonel after serving 24-years in the United States Marine Corps. He spent most of his career in Special Operations Forces as a USMC Raider in Marine Special Operations Command (MARSOC).

As Chairman of my company's Veteran’s Network, a $16B dollar company, I try to bring in Military speakers to present twice a year. I had seen Ivan present before so it’s only logical that I would want to get him in front of my executive staff. We had 75 people in attendance and 350 people that joined virtually, which is phenomenal for an event that took place on a Wednesday evening. Ivan did exactly what I knew he would do, everyone was captivated. We were scheduled to end at 6 p.m. but ended up not leaving until 8 p.m. because everyone was so impressed with his presentation. The feedback has led to increased participation in our speaker events. I was so enthralled that Ivan had to signal me to transition the slides of his presentation. I have 15 years of executive leadership experience, and I still learned a wealth of knowledge."
