About

It’s lonely at the top.
Although this is a line from Shakespeare, many CEO’s and company owners echo the sentiment. Whether you’re a new leader at a startup or a seasoned executive, you may face business challenges that you have not previously had to deal with. And, as the leader, you may be surrounded by people who expect you to have all of the answers. Who can you turn to that has dealt with these challenges – problems or opportunities before? Who can you trust for their expertise and discretion?
Enter the Shadow CEO®.
If you need guidance on establishing a company, setting a strategy, growing revenue, building an enterprise, raising capital, or making acquisitions, you’re in the right place. We also provide experienced counsel and access to a vast network for any other issues you may face. Since 1983 CaganCo has worked with the CEOs of multi billion dollar global Fortune 10 enterprises, back-of-the-napkin startups, and everything in between.
CaganCo can work with you side-by-side (hence, the shadow) or just talk through the problems.  This is not simply ‘arms-length’ advice, but rather ‘in-the-trenches’ with you, active counsel, support and even execution. With the Shadow CEO, you’re not alone anymore.

The Board of Directors for a Private Enterprise

The Board of Directors of a Private Enterprise (2017) is considered by many to be the most authoritative perspective available on private company boards and governance issues. In addition to his book, Dennis Cagan has written dozens of articles in numerous publications. A small sample of which is noted below.

How to Have a Great Board Meeting

The tone, content, and conduct of this meeting are critical to the level of governance and the ultimate value of having a Board. Yet outside of the board’s inner circle, few people know what typically goes on in one, much less how to organize and effectively conduct a board meeting.

His long experience has given him truly a wealth of knowledge when it comes to all aspects of the minute details that go into creating a successful enterprise. There have been several times when I did not take his clear advice and I invariably paid a price for not following it.
