ABOUT YOUR PRESENTERS

Craig W. Ross, CEO, Verus Global

Craig Ross is CEO of Verus Global, a four-time book author, executive coach, facilitator and a sought-after speaker.

Get ready to get real—quickly. That’s all Craig wants to do. He’s less interested in talking about what must be done. Instead, his passion centers on how we can deliver what we already know must be achieved—and in ways that make people, their families and our world better.


Craig’s singular orientation centers on strengthening leaders by developing better people who connect brilliantly with one another. It’s Craig’s belief that the vast majority of organizations already possess the human greatness necessary to succeed. What’s necessary is to activate and connect this humanity, so your team is functioning as one.
