Running a business can be overwhelming.

Trying to manage all the strategic initiatives and projects you need to accomplish can feel like chaos.

You have a gut feel everything is on track.

But, you're not really sure.

The stress and anxiety is taking its toll.

On you and your team.

Would you like to be able to relax just a little at work?

I can help.

Through my executive coaching and consulting services, you and your team can learn how to introduce structure and order to your business.

You'll learn to apply the techniques, tools, and processes I've honed over a 30+ year career.

You'll get your programs and projects under control.

The meetings that used to waste your team's time (and your company's money) will be productive and efficient.

Would your team be energized when you tell them the bad meetings are over?

They’ll be motivated and more productive.

And, you'll have a calm that comes from a data-based assurance from knowing your initiatives are on track.

You'll be an even more effective leader as you connect with your people, mobilize them for action, and deliver results.

But, your business may be in great shape.

Your stress level may already low.

If that's the case, I may not be a fit to help you and your business.

But, if you think I might be able to add value, please contact me.

I'd love the opportunity to help you and your team deliver results.

And avoid the anxiety and stress of a chaos-filled business.

I look forward to talking with you.

I Help Business Leaders Stop Bad Meetings

If you’re like me, you can’t STAND bad meetings.

They waste time and money in your business.

When your meetings are bad, your business is at risk.

So, I want to help you improve YOUR meetings.

Shiv Shenoy, PMP

I help experts earn Authority in their field and attract Growth Opportunities. | Write a book (w/o prior writing experience). | Productize your knowledge. | Crack a PM exam. | Follow me for how-tos.

In 2012, I completed 15 years in the corporate world.

Life was fast-paced, intense—18-hour workdays, back-to-back meetings, and constantly juggling projects.

Then, one week later, everything changed.

The pressure finally broke me. I ended up spending two weeks in the hospital.

With all the time in the world, I was left alone with my thoughts. Lying on the hospital bed, that’s when it hit me — what was I really doing with my life?

One sleepless night, tears streamed down my face as I confronted the truth I had been ignoring: I wasn’t living life on my terms. I wasn't being there for my family.

It was my wake-up call.

Within a year, I quit my job to go solo.

Project Management was my strength. So, I started helping others pass the PMP exam, using brain-friendly strategies I had mastered for myself.

For the next 8 months, I turned my notes into blog posts. I worked tirelessly, sold my house to stay afloat, and tried to build something out of nothing.

Yet, nothing seemed to work.

And then, I found Amazon.

I converted some of my blog posts into a book and self-published on Amazon. 

To my surprise, it became a #1 bestseller across 3 categories.

I went from chasing clients to clients chasing me — ready to pay hundreds of dollars for my coaching.

And that’s when I learned an important lesson: 

>> Building your authority is the fastest way to grow.

In 2017, I took it a step further. I started posting daily on social media — content aimed at helping project managers.

By 2019, I launched my first online course.

So far, I've:

- Written 623+ articles with over 1.3 million reads
- Published 21 books (17 on Amazon, with multiple bestsellers)
- Written over 3879+ social media posts
- Coached and taught over 6,200 students
- Created 8 online courses

Every single day, I learn new ways to reach and help more people.

I built my businesses from scratch by building authority online. And if you're an expert in your field, you can do the same.

Here’s how:

- Build your online presence
- Write content on LinkedIn & your blog
- Convert your expertise into a book (instant authority)

It’s simple once you know the steps. I’ve made tons of mistakes, learned from the best, and built systems that can help anyone grow fast.

If you’re ready to scale your authority and attract endless opportunities, I’m here to guide you.

Facts don’t build authority.

Beliefs do.

You worked for years.
But your LinkedIn profile shows only facts.

Jobs.
Titles.
Deliverables.

All good.
But none of them explain your value.
People follow a point of view, not a project list.

They want to know:
What do you stand for? 
What can you do for them?

This weekend, fix your LinkedIn About Me section.

Use the A.B.O.U.T. method to write a strong, authority-driven profile within LinkedIn’s 2,600-char limit.

𝗔 — 𝗔𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳
Your core conviction about your field.

𝗕 — 𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗳
A short lived experience that shaped your belief.

𝗢 — 𝗢𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄
How you see the work differently from most.

𝗨 — 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲
The exact benefit you create for people.

𝗧 — 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗲
How someone’s world changes after working with you.

Write each part.
Expand them.
Blend them.
You’ll have a powerful About Me section that builds trust, not confusion.

I've given an example of a Director of Delivery, below.
Save it. Share it. 

𝗣𝗦: Use the words "𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗠𝗲" in your comment below, and I'll DM you a pdf containing this method and the example.

Authority Branding for CXOs & Experts | LinkedIn Top Voice | I help you go from expert-in-the-room to authority-in-the-industry — unlocking limitless growth.

Use this ABOUT method to write your About Me section on LinkedIn, persuasively. Attract better opportunities.

This comment hit me harder than most.

Because it was truth from the field.
And it sums up why most experts stay invisible.

A finance leader commented on my post:

“You save crores through efficiency, but the applause goes to the dealmaker.
You automate processes that free up entire teams, but it looks like ‘just reports.’
You deliver excellence again and again, until it becomes the bare minimum.”

That’s not a complaint.
That’s reality for thousands of experts.

They create impact quietly.
But being good at work isn’t enough. 
People don’t value what they don’t notice.

Interestingly,
As you start sharing, people think you’ve changed.
But really, you’ve just stopped staying quiet.

If you’ve been the “silent expert,” 
it’s time to step out of the quiet zone.
Not to boast. 
To be seen.
But to be understood. 

♻️ Repost if you believe expertise needs to be shared.

Showing your work is not bragging, it is balance. Your future-self will thank you.

Chaos isn’t the test.

Composure is.

We were in an M&A meeting.
Tension thick enough to cut through.
Numbers clashed.
Egos clashed harder.

Midway, the other side demanded retention bonuses for their top team.. a sudden addition that stretched our budget thin.

You could feel the air shift.
Our finance head frowned.

I looked at my CEO.
He didn’t flinch.
He just said,
“Let’s hear 𝘸𝘩𝘺 they need it.”

Then he listened.
𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 listened.

Turned out their leaders were anxious about job security.
They weren’t pushing greed.
They were asking for assurance.

So he reframed the offer.
No extra payout.
Just a six-month performance-based retention plan.

Deal saved.
Team trust built.

Because in rooms where chaos reigns,
calm becomes strategy.

That’s what authority really is.
Not volume.
Not titles.
But the ability to create order when everything feels unstable.

Composure isn’t about keeping quiet.
It’s about keeping clarity.

And that day, I learned:
Deals don’t collapse from conflict.
They collapse from tone.

Because chaos doesn’t define leaders.
Composure, and the authority it commands, does.

How you make people feel decides their trust in you. Their trust in you earns you authority naturally.

Small signals move big doors.

But most experts never send them.

Most experts stay hidden without meaning to.

Not because they lack skill.
But because the world has 𝘯𝘰 𝘮𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘺 of their work.

This week’s edition of 𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗡𝗼𝗶𝘀𝗲 breaks down the simple shift that turns 𝘩𝘪𝘥𝘥𝘦𝘯 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘧𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘨𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯. 

The kind that brings warm leads, easier sales, 
and rooms where people already know your name.

If you’ve been not getting recognition… 
this will feel uncomfortably accurate, in all right ways.

Turning Expertise Into Effortless Recognition

Your legacy starts in minutes.

Not years.

Leaders don’t set out to “build a legacy.”

They simply live one moment at a time.
One choice at a time.
One interaction at a time.

And here’s something I’ve learned while working with CXOs write their books:

When you sit with a leader for months…
When you hear their stories…
When you see what shaped them…
You start noticing the quiet '𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱' patterns.

Those patterns aren’t dramatic.
They’re not headline moments.
They’re tiny signals of who they really are.

And those tiny signals compound.
Into trust. Into reputation. 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗰𝘆.

Here’s the simple system I see in that pattern.

𝟭 / 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗻 (30 seconds)
Share the story behind the work your team did.
Not to praise. To preserve the meaning.

People don’t remember the task.
They remember why it mattered.

𝟮 / 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗻 (20 seconds)
Turn the week’s experience into a clear takeaway.
Simple. Human. Practical.

This builds a shared language that keeps teams aligned.

𝟯 / 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗼𝗿 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻 (10 seconds)
Invite a reply. A thought. A concern.

Leaders aren’t remembered for having the answers.
They’re remembered for making room for better ones.

This system doesn’t create legacy.
It reveals it.
By capturing the things you’re already doing with a little more clarity and a little more care.

That’s where legacy begins.
In minutes.
Not years.
