Other Notes on Who We Work With
We focus on the middle market. We add the most value here, due to our unique ability to apply leading management practices to mid-market companies.
We do our best work helping well-run companies reach new performance levels. We don’t typically do restructuring and crisis management.
Most of our PE clients have operating partners. We help leverage their expertise.
We create the most value with strong management teams.
We avoid situations where the board is forcing “help” on management, and the management team isn’t really interested in additional resources.
A small portion of our work is helping companies implement fundamentals—the basic “blocking and tackling” operating processes. We create the most value with companies that have mastered the basics and are seeking new improvement frontiers.
