About Frank Shadid

For over 40 years, I navigated the complex rooms executives and entrepreneurs occupy right now. High-stakes transitions, hostile leadership changes, organizational upheaval, and sudden corporate divorces. Some were chapters I chose; others were thrust upon me.I know the exact financial and psychological tax of those crossroads. And I learned a brutal structural reality along the way: They are always harder than they need to be because everyone you can turn to is simply too close to the situation to give objective counsel.That is exactly the gap I fill now.What I offer isn’t a coaching program, a generic five-step methodology, or a mindset reframe. It is strategic neutrality. A private, entirely confidential conversation with a peer who has sat in those same rooms, carries no downstream agenda, and has no stake except your clarity.Most of my clients partner with me in confidential, 30-to-90-day advisory sprints to navigate specific inflection points— The Strategic Exit (Optimizing voluntary departures around equity schedules)— The Forced Transition (Securing an unemotional, optimal severance buffer)— Corporate Divorce & Boardroom Coups (Managing co-founder fractures or board disputes)— Identity & Liquidity Sprints (Handling the intense psychological shifts of a company sale)If something is sitting on your desk right now where the usual internal answers aren’t enough, reach me directly at f••••@frankshadid.com to set up a private call.
