Bio: 
After several decades of running teams of 400+ people, companies with a PNL of a half billion dollars, and closing a $40M software deal just days after 9/11, I spent decades executing and chasing, being unbalanced, and working IN the business, not ON the business in fortune 100, PE and VC companies. 
 For the past seven years I have operated as a fractional CEO/COO for many companies from pre-revenue to $200M, specifically with business owners in chaotic industries. 
 My mission is to help CEO's and owners finally solve the core problems they are shackled with.  So I created a community just for them called The Shift Spot where CEO's learn to take control of their business and their lives!
