BOOK SHAHARA TO SPEAK

Picture
E-MAIL FOR AVAILABILITY
Shahara Wright is the award-winning author of From Entrepreneur to CEO and the creator of the CEO Collaboration Circle and Business Done Wright.
 
As a business strategist and business law attorney, her strategies and proven methodologies have transformed the way small business owners, entrepreneurs and CEO's reduce legal liabilities and increase their bottom line.
 
Shahara founded The Wright Firm, PLLC over 18 years ago when she couldn't find a law firm that matched her schedule as a single mom. From a young age, she knew it was possible for entrepreneurs, especially single moms, to build a successful business their way.
 
After that humble start, Shahara quickly developed the Road 2 CEO Success to help CEO's of small and mid-sized companies enhance operations and execute strategic change.
 
Shahara's success was just getting stated as her firm began assisting brands with product development, bringing products from mere concept to a fully developed and manufactured brand. Small and mid-sized businesses were seeing reduced operation costs of 20% and increased profitability by as much as 30%
 
Of course, Shahara's strategies aren't just for small and mid-sized companies, she's helped entrepreneurs at all levels how to build a sustainable business, protect it, and make more money doing the work they love.
 
Shahara lives in Houston, TX, where she pursues her passion of helping single moms create sustainable businesses and build strong legacies for the generations to come.

​​When we created the agenda for our first ever Diversity Summit, we needed an invitation only session for our CEOs to be engaged in this important conversation with our business community. Shahara was recommended due to her highly regarded efforts working with leaders to establish inclusive and collaborative teams in their business and work environments. Her unique, interactive presentation techniques successfully engaged these high level business leaders and received excellent reviews for the content they received. She not only made the point for exploring collaborative strategies as a necessary means for these CEO’s team building programs, Shahara also presented supportive ideas how to develop these programs. She was a critical and highly effective part of our program. - Eddie McBride, Lubbock Chamber of Commerce
