Charleston, S.C.- After more than a decade of studying humor and sharing stages with comics, behavioral economist and MBA professor Dr. Peter McGraw reveals his entertaining and eye-opening business insights through the hilarious lens of comedy with attendees at NGCOA’s Golf Business Conference 2023. McGraw’s humorous delivery will inspire golf course owners and operators to develop and experiment with new, funnier ways to connect to their customers and grow their golf course businesses.

“Aside from Caddyshack or Happy Gilmore, it’s not obvious how comedy and golf go together,” said McGraw. “However, golf course owners and operators can learn how to think differently about their business from the people who think differently about nearly everything: the masters of comedy. During my keynote session at GBC23, there will be novel insights from the world of comedy and a few laughs along the way!”
This seriously funny keynote, “Shtick to Business: Serious Business Lessons in Creativity and Execution from Comedy’s Rebels,” will take place Tuesday, January 24 at the Rosen Centre (the GBC23 host hotel). Attendees save $100 on GBC23 registration through December 31; find event details, the full education agenda and online registration at golfbusinessconference.com.
