Full Bio

For the last 26 years as a management and marketing consultant, Don Shapiro made a name for himself by asking the questions that no one else asked. That same curiosity got him thinking about this inner voice or feeling that occasionally tried to guide him down one path or another. When he would follow that voice even though he had little or no facts to support taking that fork in the road, surprising things happened.

Don began to wonder if these were a coincidence or came from something far more powerful. Then he asked the question which lead to the research he is now conducting for his book “Life Is A Fork In The Road:” how many other people have experienced the same phenomena and what happened when they followed this inner voice or feeling? He is now collecting stories and insights about our inner wisdom on his website www.lifeisaforkintheroad.com and the book’s  Facebook page (www.facebook.com/lifeisaforkintheroad).

A curious nature, a passion for uncovering what causes things to happen and a creative spirit have driven Don Shapiro from childhood through his entire career. Sometimes it’s driven other people crazy (but that’s a story for another day)!

Don Shapiro is President and founder of First Concepts Consultants, Inc.  Besides consulting, he is a nationally recognized speaker and trainer on sales, marketing, leadership and managing change. He is also the Creative Director for Rykristo Music Publishing which handles music licensing for the electronic artist Alien Tribe. He is an author who loves to write and speak.
