Shane Dorman

Three decades in global derivatives markets — trading, running desks, allocating institutional risk across every regime the market has offered.

What I saw from inside the seat: the strategy is rarely the problem. The decision-maker's relationship with the strategy is. Specifically, the structural patterns that compress execution at exactly the moments it needs to expand.

I spent 25 years watching it happen — in myself and around me — without being able to name it precisely enough to change it. Then I spent 8 years studying what the seat alone couldn't teach me: Enneagram at depth, NLP, integral frameworks, formal coaching. Not because any one of them was sufficient. Because the synthesis across them finally made the patterns nameable.

Now I work with traders carrying meaningful risk who are already performing — and leaving something on the table they can feel but can't fully explain.

I name the patterns. You do the rest.
