A week ago, on October 30, 2019, CEOWorld magazine published an article I wrote on “Executive Equity Compensation in Severance Negotiations”.  The magazine advised me that I can use “Featured in the CEOWOLRD magazine” and the CEOWORLD “Logo” on my website.

This was my 25th article published in CEOWORLD. Earlier this year, the editor advised that I can add CEOWORLD magazine in my LinkedIn profile’s “Experience Section” as an “Opinion Columnist.” and authority in the field.

This article, my most recent, published October 30, is designed for CEOs, C-level and senior executives, for whom equity can often be the most valuable part of their executive compensation package.  The article addresses the question – what happens to that equity position if you face employment termination – and offers tips for severance negotiations over equity, including
  • What to include in your offer letter or executive employment agreement when you join the company?
  • What to seek in a change-of-control / retention situation?
  • What to negotiate for on employment termination?
  • The importance of equity in your severance negotiations.
In discussing equity severance negotiations at the time of employment termination, my article raises using your leverage in employment separation negotiations including
  • Legal claims you may have against your company related to wrongful termination of employment,
  • Termination transition services and support the company may desire from you,
  • Cooperation to sign a lock-up agreement or other documents or actions post-termination.

It is my hope that this article will be helpful to CEOs, COOs, CMOs, other C-Level and senior executives to provide for appropriate terms to protect their equity rights in any present or future severance negotiations.  If you or any colleague of yours has a need in this area, please do reach out to me at
