Meet the Leadership
Hands-on strategists. Diagnostic thinkers. Growth partners.
Joseph Frasko
Founder & The Growth Pathologist™
Joseph is a private equity-trained diagnostician and strategic equity partner for $5M–$25M founder-led companies trapped beneath the weight of their own success. He is the creator of the proprietary DxRx Method™—a forensic diagnostic process that applies Wall Street rigor, operational war stories, and private equity discipline to uncover the real issues hiding behind stagnant growth, misaligned teams, and operational drag. He's not a coach. Not a consultant. Joseph is the business world's radiologist—brought in when symptoms persist but no one can name the cause. He has personally unlocked over $270M in enterprise value, advised founders, equity partners, and family offices, and helped CEOs navigate exits, acquisitions, and burnout. Credentials include: - Wharton Private Equity Program graduate - Certified Value Growth Advisor (CVGA) - Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA)
"If you want someone who can see the whole board—and tell you what move actually matters—Joseph is that guy."
