CONNECTING TALENT TO VALUE

Imagine the Potential When Investment-Decision Rigour Meets Talent Decisions.

Companies aim to deliver value to both customers and owners through meticulous, evidence-backed investments. Yet, after such careful planning, the precision often fades when it comes to talent decisions.

Despite the extensive preparation by PE firms or large corporations, talent choices, like selecting a CEO, can be hasty. The failure rate among new CEOs speaks volumes. It's crucial to align talent decisions with key roles that drive enterprise value.

We guide the C-suite –specifically CEOs and CHROs– to improve the impact of their talent decisions by linking them tightly to where the value creation sits, and making them more data-driven and risk-conscious, ultimately leading to greater value in less time.

CEO

This is what we do when we work with CEOs: We help them focus their talent decisions on the few spots where the future value is to make them much more evidence-based and much more risk-aware. As a result, they will create more company value in less time.

CHRO

CHRO

We often work with CHROs who are new in their role. Helping avoid common mistakes and get off to a fast start. This starts with crafting a people agenda that is strictly focused on the most important value-creating priorities in the company.

PRIVATE EQUITY

PRIVATE EQUITY

Money is not patient, and in PE, time matters when maximizing returns. Moving away from intuitive talent decisions that are often wrong, we drive down time to value by focusing on the very few roles in the company that do the heavy lifting of value creation.
