Getting leadership teams built-out, onto the same page, and ready to win as one.
Early days in an investment, momentum matters. And momentum is only possible if your portfolio company’s leadership team is on the same page.
Our 6 Questions method helps growth-stage leaders to get into-sync on the 6 critical questions that any growth story depends on.
Getting the most out of your investment requires getting the best out of your people.
The most valuable assets in your companies are… the people. Yet research tells us that many companies aren’t getting the best their people have to give. And it costs them greatly.
We help your companies build great teams of people… and create cultures and leaders that get the best out of those people.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hi there, I’m Dan. I wrote Winning Moves to help private equity investors and executives build great businesses and generate returns faster.
And in this environment, investors can’t rely on value-buying, cost-cutting, and financial engineering to reliably deliver outsized returns. We’re living in an era in which taking a proactive, intentional approach to driving portfolio value creation is key to getting and staying ahead. Your career success and your firm’s financial success depend on it.
In light of this, I set out to answer a simple question: what are the leading private equity investors and executives doing to drive predictable, repeatable value creation in their companies? In my new book, Winning Moves, I’ve melded together my own experience with their 1,000+ years of combined wisdom to help investors and executives invest smarter, and make value creation happen faster.
