Ashna Shah | Strategy for Visionaries

You see what no one else sees. Together we bring it to life.

STRATEGY FOR VISIONARIES

I am a force multiplier for a specific kind of leader. The kind that senses there is something bigger out there, a more expansive version of what they’re building. One where everyone wins.

The right visionary, clearly seeing their own vision, can move the world. My gift is making that possible.

I’ve spent 15 years working with Fortune 50 brands, start ups and manufacturers — taking me to open mics in Tel Aviv, store openings in Stockholm, factory floors in Mumbai and brainstorms in London, Dallas and beyond.

Before going independent I led strategists at Universal McCann, Albert AI and Code and Theory. My client partners have run advertising, growth and revenue companies like H&M, Four Seasons and Con Edison — and gone on to found high-growth start ups, direct award winning non-profits, and build things that last. While my work takes many forms, producing a vision that meets the moment, is my signature.

THOUGHT PARTNERSHIPS

For the leader about to make the leap.

You have a vision but you're standing in the space between what you sense is possible and how to express it. We close that gap together, with clarity, language, and a map your team can run with.

IN THE ROOM

For the leader in motion.

You know what you're building and you need to bring people along. You need someone who gets it, in the room with you - pitching, briefing, producing, and revising to match live hurdles.
