For the last twenty years, private equity firms have been experimenting with how to onboard and integrate operating professionals in order to drive value creation – with mixed success.
Operating professionals typically join PE after a successful career in industry or consulting, but often struggle with how to succeed inside of their PE shops. And PE firms often struggle with how to effectively manage their ops team and worry that they are not getting the results they expected.
