POWER UP YOUR PUBLISHING

Executive

Ghostwriting


From non-fiction bestsellers to CEO bylines, ghostwriting is more prevalent—and more powerful—than most realize. To adapt an expression: there are ghosts in the (publishing) machine.

Stylograph partners with founders, cultural leaders, and C-suite executives to articulate and amplify distinctive public voices. Drawing on two decades of C-suite ghostwriting, thought leadership strategy, and editorial direction, we translate complex ideas into content that builds personal brand equity, institutional credibility, and measurable visibility.

What Makes Stylograph Different

Ghostwriting is often treated as a service.

At Stylograph, it’s a strategic function —the narrative intelligence that powers executive influence, organizational storytelling, and long-term thought leadership.

Every engagement begins with deep listening, rigorous synthesis, and a journalist’s eye for what’s original, defensible, and worth sharing.
