You have been charged with a new project and now you have the “Blank Page” problem? Have you ever wished an invisible hand would give you a good tug and help to get you started?
I sure know the feeling.
Or you are at a dead end but you cannot reveal that to your superiors? Do you need someone who stays in the shadows and gives you a new perspective?
I got so many requests for such a service that over time I made some changes to my regular Modus Operandi.
Consultants like to brag about their customers. Great advertising.
I cannot do that on my ghosting service. In such a case, my customers don’t want anyone to know that I ever did any work for them. They might want to take credit for the work or there might be other, internal reasons why external help is considered to be a problem. Or there are sensitive internal team or company dynamics at play and it’s best not to disturb the calm surface the team or company presents.
Your reasons for keeping things super-confidential matter very little to me. Confidentiality is my default mode – which means that the only way someone else is ever going to find out that I worked for you is if you tell them. By writing me a recommendation. Other than that, I will never even mention you to anyone else. No Confidentiality Agreement is required for that. Well, I will sign one if that makes you happier. You hold the reins.
What I will not do is make false statements, cheat, lie, or do any other action that might be used to trick investors or business partners. If my reputation is at stake, I will simply desist from working for you.
